Institute for Women's Studies reception

Traditional academic disciplines have devoted little systematic attention to issues of gender, race, class, and sexuality. In the past 30 years, feminist scholars have contributed to the reinterpretation of existing data and to the presentation of new knowledge about the diversity of women’s experiences. Through course work and outreach, the Institute for Women’s Studies offers students an opportunity to explore women’s lives in global and multicultural contexts.

This year marks their 35th anniversary and the Institute will recognize this milestone with a reception honoring all women faculty at UGA on friday, Sept. 7 from 11:30 am to 1 pm at the tate Student Center Grand Hall.
