What do students say about why they get involved with the Women's Studies Program?

Women's Studies is "tremendously valuable to both male and female students alike as it involves the study of issues that have relevance and resonance to all of us."

"Women's Studies is of vital importance to make sure that women's interests and accomplishments are highlighted in the curriculum."

"The Women's Studies Program is caring, compassionate, and supportive to students and the wider community."

"The greater awareness of the social and political issues that are often discussed in Women's Studies courses and events can lead people to become more involved citizens and to give back to the community."
