Women's History Month Speakers

 

Every March, the Women and Gender Studies Program recognizes Women's History Month by bringing national and local speakers to campus. 

   

The 2012 Women's History Month Keynote Speaker is C.J. Pascoe.

 

Masculinity and sexuality may not seem like that big of a deal...

But bullying and suicide do.

 

Understand the problem, make a difference.

 

Join expert, C.J. Pascoe, for the talk, "Bullied: Youth, Masculinity, and Homophobia"

Monday March 5, 4pm, Bulger North Auditorium
