Objectives
The program in Women’s Studies exposes students – both female and male – to the contributions of women in society from a broad range of perspectives that are not only personally enlightening, but are also useful in the pursuit of careers in law, government, psychology, social services, communications, education, business, and medicine. Students explore issues raised by contemporary feminists, and study the effects of gender roles on political, economic, and social institutions. These perspectives promote a sensitivity to issues of gender and power, and an understanding of changing roles and expectations in American Society.
