Flora Stone Mather Center for Women works to educate and empower

Even though the undergraduate student population is still slightly male-heavy (last year’s incoming class was 57 percent male), the Flora Stone Mather Center for Women has a strong presence on campus. The Center works to improve the educational, professional, and social climate and to increase opportunities for women through education, advocacy, and research. The Center invites many renowned speakers to campus every year to discuss gender issues. The latest is Dr. Sandra Harding, who has authored or edited 15 books in her career as a philosopher of science.

Additionally, the Center for Women offers many health resources and support programs for all women on campus. With April being Sexual Assault Awareness month, the Center is sponsoring many programs to give back to women in need such as Take Back the Night, a rally and march against harassment and sexual assault. Students can easily get involved in the Flora Stone Mather Center for Women as a student assistant, volunteer, or just an attendee at their powerful events.
