About Us
Founded in 1991, the Women’s Center serves as a resource on women’s issues and works to promote an atmosphere of diversity for students, faculty, staff and the community. We assist the University in achieving its goals by implementing programs that enhance, support, and empower women on campus. The Center and its programs and services are open to all students without regard to gender. While participating in Women’s Center programs might not feel right for everyone, all are certainly welcome.

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.
