为什么是妇女中心?
Women’s Centers exist because gender equity has still not been achieved in any country around the world. Women with the same level of education, experience and responsibility still earn less than their male peers, and women of color face an even larger pay gap. Women hold fewer tenured faculty positions and continue to face challenges in many professional fields. Women of color are underrepresented in many areas of higher education. Violence against women is rampant in America with more than a half-million women reporting assaults by intimate partners and four women dying each day as a result of domestic violence.
Clearly, we still have a lot of work to do!
We’d love your involvement in raising awareness of women’s and gender-related issues. Every woman you meet is someone’s mother, daughter, sister, wife or partner. Help us to build a more just and equitable world for the women in your life. Achieving equality means involving everyone. The Women’s Center is for individuals of all 性别身份 to explore these issues in a safe and nonjudgmental space.
Come learn about and help us address important social issues, 包括薪酬公平, 生殖健康, 消除对妇女的暴力行为, LGBTQIA+/gender discrimination and harassment, 种族公平与平等, and re-examining all aspects of our lives for how they have been socially constructed along race, class, 性别和性别界线.
