Women’s Center
The Women’s Center advances gender equity from an intersectional feminist
perspective through co-curricular programming, support services, and advocacy for
marginalized individuals and communities. Faculty and staff are encouraged to
engage in the Women's Center community by attending our programs and events,
spending time in our lounge area, or applying to become a member of the Women's
Center Advisory Board (applications are available early spring). The Women's Center
also seeks faculty and staff who are interested in helping facilitate
workshops and discussions, serve on roundtable panels, or write as a guest blogger for
the Women’s Center blog. The Women's Center is also home to the campus lactation
room. Check out the different programs and services offered by the Women's Center
