Women’s <strong>and</strong> Gender Studies provides students a coherent,<br />

but flexible, program <strong>of</strong> study examining scholarship <strong>and</strong><br />

theory on the history, status, contributions, <strong>and</strong> experiences<br />

<strong>of</strong> women <strong>and</strong> men in diverse cultural communities.<br />

The interdisciplinary perspective <strong>of</strong> the field exp<strong>and</strong>s our<br />

intellectual vision <strong>and</strong> our capacity to resolve problems.<br />

The Women’s <strong>and</strong> Gender Studies Program is committed<br />

to an exp<strong>and</strong>ing recognition <strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>and</strong> strength<br />

<strong>of</strong> difference <strong>and</strong> diversity in people’s lives.<br />

The Women’s <strong>and</strong> Gender Studies major, minor, <strong>and</strong><br />

four-year degree programs enable students to analyze<br />

how gender, in its dynamic interrelationship with race<br />

<strong>and</strong> class, has shaped <strong>and</strong> given meaning to people’s<br />

lives.<br />

The Women’s <strong>and</strong> Gender Studies Program is<br />

administered by the director <strong>and</strong> the Women’s Studies<br />

Governing Board. The following faculty serve on the<br />

Women’s Studies Governing Board: Bennion, Borshuk,<br />

Colanese, L. Collins, Davis, Gerken, S. Joyce, Lidinsky,<br />

Lucal, McGuire, Roth, Rusnock, Sage, L. Walker, <strong>and</strong><br />

Zwicker.<br />
