Women’s Studies marks 25th anniversary
The Women’s Studies program is sponsoring events throughout this academic year to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Women’s Studies Program on campus.

Events include many lectures, colloquia, exhibitions and performances. A major conference, “History in the Making: Celebrating 25 Years of Women’s Studies Scholarship and Activism” will be held this October in Madison.

This semester, the Women’s Studies program offers students more than 25 choices, ranging from a basic class on women’s bodies in health and disease to women in sports to black women’s writings to upper-level independent graduate courses. The program serves about 1,000 students every semester.

Virginia Sapiro, professor of political science and women’s studies, heads the committee organizing the events that will surround the program’s 25th anniversary year.
