- Lectures/Discussions
Most of our lectures are given by current faculty or by speakers who
have been recommended by professors on campus. Faculty also give us
ideas for programs or discussion topics. Some programs can be
coordinated to supplement the content for specific courses.
- Advocacy
Faculty refer students to the Women's
Center regarding gender violence, sexual harassment, parenting issues
and support, activism, or if they don't know where else to go for
assistance.
- Library
Let your students know we have a library focused on gender issues. Faculty may place their class readers on hold at our library.
- Rape and Sexual Harassment Education Peers
Faculty
often invite staff or students to give presentations or lead
discussions in their classes or departments. Faculty can also become
discussion leaders themselves.
- Women's Center Board
Faculty serve on the Board of
the Women's Center. This group participates in the development of
organization policies, goals and objectives. Members also may be
involved in programming and hiring processes.
- Art Gallery and Meeting Space
Faculty are often
involved in recommending artists to display their work in the gallery.
The gallery may also be used as a meeting space for colloquia, small
classes, staff meetings or other special events.
