Who We Are
Founded in 2017, LGBTQ Studies is a program of the Department of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies. Our mission is to support teaching and learning about LGBTQ+ people and issues.
What We're Fundraising For
Your donations to the Casey McKittrick Endowed Excellence Endowment will be used to support students in the LGBTQ Studies Program through scholarships and programming. UT is a better and more welcoming place for queer students and students interested in queer studies in part because of Casey’s work.
Casey McKittrick was a scholar, a writer, a teacher, a beloved son and unforgettably warm and hilarious friend. During PhD studies in the English department at The University of Texas at Austin from 1998-2005, Casey was part of an important cohort of queer studies students (including Alex Barron) who helped start the LGBTQ Studies Research Cluster in the Center for Women’s and Gender Studies. The LGBTQ Studies Program grew out of the Research Cluster, and Casey’s dissertation was co-directed by the Program’s Founding Director, Ann Cvetkovich, and Janet Staiger, CWGS Director from 2001-2004.
Casey was born June 28th, 1973 and passed away June 8th, 2019. It has been said of Casey McKittrick that he left an indelible mark of grace on this world.
