Researching Homosexuality in 17th Century Japan | Marcus Undergraduate Research Fellowship at SF State
“Sexuality in 17th century Japan was not what we expected.” — Kayla Ratliff
Inspired, in part, by a desire to learn about her Japanese heritage, San Francisco State University History major Kayla Ratliff is reading literature to understand how homosexuality was viewed and practiced in 17th century Japan. She found that sexual relationships between men weren’t stigmatized, and wanted to further research the topic.

Why I Chose Museum Studies: Connecting People to Communities
Taylor discusses why she chose Museum Studies at San Francisco State University: “It’s essential for connecting people to communities and connecting people to their shared histories.”
The @SFSU Museum Studies Program, the only of its kind at a public university in California, offers a Master of Arts and undergraduate minor. Its 500-plus alumni have advanced to successful careers from the Getty to the Smithsonian.
Students gain professional-level experience on campus at the 1,922-square-foot The Global Museum, serving as a capstone experience. Students are responsible for preserving University collections, designing exhibitions, conducting research, creating educational programs and supporting visitors.
Permanent collections include art and material culture from Africa, the Americas, Asia, Egypt and Oceania, spanning the ancient world to the 20th century. Highlights include the mummy Nes-Per-N-Nub, once a high priest of the Temple of Karnak. His remains occupy a triple-nesting sarcophagus, one of only three in the United States. Adolph Sutro, San Francisco mayor in the 1890s, purchased the mummies and displayed them at the Sutro Baths until the mid-1960s. George K. Whitney Jr. donated them to SF State in 1964.
