Graduate Students Explore Forms of Desire

Last April, QUNY (the association for queer students at the CUNY Graduate Center) and CLAGS co-sponsored Forms of Desire: The Seventh Annual Queer Graduate Studies Conference, showcasing the research of more than 100 graduate students from across the country and around the world. With panels on such topics as Sexuality and the State, Pre-Modern Sexualities, Lesbian Erotics, Reading Bisexualities, Queer Ethnographies, AIDS and Its Narratives, Queer(ing) Masculinities, and Homo Hollywood, the conference approached the growing field of lesbian/gay/queer studies from a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives
