RECOVERING WOMENS HISTORY
TELLING WOMENS STORIES
The sixteenth annual
All-University Conference on the Advancement of Women in Higher
Education will
be held on April 7, 2000 in the University Center. Sponsored
by the Womens
Studies Council and the
Office of Womens Studies, this annual event highlights the
accomplishments of women
faculty,
administrators, staff, and students of the South Plains
academic community. By providing a forum for
discussion of issues and concerns common to
women in higher education, the conference
contributes to
creating an academic environment
more supportive of the advancement of women. The general public and
all students, staff,
and faculty of area colleges and universities are invited to attend.
The first conference was held in the
fall of 1984. Since then, the conference has
brought to
Tech women
with various experiences as educators, researchers, thinkers, and activists to
deliver
keynote addresses and
other women from the campus and the community to share
their knowledge and stories as part
of discussion
panels. This years event will continue
that
tradition. And now that the conference
is held in the spring, it
has become an extension of
the March Womens History Month observance.
This
display tells the story of previous conferences and invites everyone to join the
organizers
in this
years program. For more information,
