Women in Academia

The Feminist Reading Group invites you to join us for our last meeting of the term on Wednesday, March 25th, from 1:30-3:00 pm in UC 384. This meeting will provide a forum for discussion around the particular challenges women in academia may face (including not only forms of systemic sexism, but also age-related discrimination). We will also discuss the challenges and rewards of motherhood for women in academic careers.

No formal preparation for this meeting is required, as we will provide select materials for discussion at the meeting itself. If anyone has material that they would like to contribute for discussion (including online sources), please feel free to send it along ahead of time.

All are welcome!
