Marilyn Myerson Student Success Fund Herdfunder

The Department of Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies is fundraising for the newly created Marilyn Myerson Student Success Fund through a USF Herdfunder campaign. 

The Marilyn Myerson Student Success Fund will provide money to WGSS students to present their research at conferences and to cover the costs of research trips and expenses. This will ensure that all WGSS students have the opportunity to participate in professional and career development activities, network in their fields and pursue their research interests, regardless of their ability to pay.

Your generosity will enable students to engage in research, present at conferences and work towards publication, which will enable them to do world-changing scholarship while also positioning them to progress to the next level of their education or career.

The Fund is named for Associate Professor Emeritus Marilyn Myerson, who was the first outside hire for Women's Studies at USF in 1973.
