"Nancy Davis teaches courses in sociology, including "Sexuality, Culture, and Power” that is cross-listed with Women’s Studies. Her course “Protest, Activism, and Change” highlights feminist activism as one of seven major movements considered, as well as the role of women in other movements for change. In previous years, she has taught “Gender & Society” and a senior seminar in sociology focused on cultural conflict, including struggles between feminists and anti-feminists over issues of reproductive rights, sexuality, and school curriculum.
One of the founding mothers of the Women's Studies program at DePauw, she has chaired and served on the Women's Studies committee and worked in Greencastle to reduce domestic violence and establish services for abused women and their children.
Her research includes publications in
The American Journal of Sociology, The American Sociological Review, and other journals on incorporating women into sociological conceptions of class; perceptions of gender inequality and support for government intervention to reduce it; and, the connections between religious orthodoxy and gender attitudes in Western Europe and the U.S. "
