Women's Center

Women's Center

The Women’s Center is committed to challenging and working to dismantle patriarchy, and other systems of oppression through collectively building a gender-equitable campus and greater community. Applying an intersectional and anti-racist feminist framework, we aim to enhance a sense of belonging and empowerment among women, femmes and gender non-conforming students, staff, and faculty.  The Women’s Center is a place where ALL are welcomed to engage in achieving gender-equity and social justice. In this spirit, we are committed to advocacy, education, empowerment, and action.
