To the Women's Studies Newsletter:

The National Institute of Education, which commissioned a series of eight monographs on women's studies as well as the Women's Studies Evaluation Handbook, has, since March 1980, been in the publishing and distribution business, mailing the 2,500 copies of the monograph series and handbook both to preset mailing lists (e.g., all women's studies programs, centers for research on women, libraries subscribing to this Newsletter, women's caucuses and commissions on the status of women in the professions, and higher education associations) and to those who have responded to various solicited and unsolicited notices in …

Hq 1100 - Hq 1870: A Librarian's View Of The Second Nwsa Convention, Linda Parker

Women's Studies Quarterly

In the introduction to the NWSA Convention program, the Convention Coordinators refer to the necessity of building networks, disseminating new information and research, launching new campaigns for change, stirring new insights, and nurturing our growth as individuals. These concepts could form a feminist librarian's motto. Many libraries are bureaucratic monoliths which may seem impervious to change, but change is occurring because feminist library workers are challenging institutional policies and practices which form barriers to both women workers and women library users. Feminist librarians join NWSA for the same reason as anyone else—"to further the social, political, and professional development of …

Concerns Of Women's Studies Programs At The Nwsa Convention: A Graduate Student's Perspective, King Ming Young

Women's Studies Quarterly

As a graduate student, I found the Convention an inspiring educational experience. The high level of energy with which participants arrived became more intense as the week went by. A sense of excitement and a spirit of mission permeated the atmosphere. People were eager to share their experiences in women's studies and to learn from others. Many left with a heightened realization of how much remains to be done at their institution. They also left with an increased commitment to bringing about the needed institutional and social changes.

One concern prevailed throughout the Convention: how can NWSA avoid becoming a …

FROM THE NATIONAL OFFICE

By Elaine Reuben

At the opening session of the 1980 NWSA Convention, Dale Spender urged U.S. feminist educators to educate themselves beyond national boundaries. She called for an extension of our consciousness-raising efforts to understand and appreciate differences within an international feminist movement: for our own sakes, as well as for our sisters around the globe.

In the Spring Newsletter editorial, Florence Howe noted the large questions and hard choices posed by a growing awareness of international developments in women's studies. "Should we be institution-building in the U.S. or helping, advising, missionizing, urging—and learning from—women's studies …

FROM THE STEERING COMMITTEE

Responding to the 1979 charge of the Finance Committee and the Delegate Assembly, the Coordinating Council devoted a major portion of its February 14-17 meeting in College Park to a discussion of finances. The clear intent of all sessions was the consideration of fiscal responsibility in terms of feminist principles and the goals of NWSA.

On February 13, several members of the 1979-80 Finance Committee (Liz Birch, Alice Stadthaus, Barbara Taylor, Mary Thornberry, and Robin Wright) met with the Steering Committee (Pat Gozemba, Jan Meriwether, and Kay Towns); the National Coordinator, Elaine Reuben; the National Staff …

Introducing Manushi: An Indian Feminist Journal, Tobe Levin

Women's Studies Quarterly

"Liquor, the slaying of women and Shudras ... are all minor offences," according to Manu, the Hindu lawgiver. "To rape is human," asserts Mr. Joshi, Chief Minister of the province of Madhya Pradesh.

V. Meera calls on these voices of tradition to open her article, "Prisoners of Inequality: Sexual Abuse of Dalit Women," in an excellent new feminist bimonthly magazine called Manushi: A Journal about Women and Society. Manushi, whose title means "woman" in Hindi, first appeared in January 1979, as the pioneer publication of its kind in India. It is produced in Delhi by an independent feminist collective …

Nwsa News And Views, Elaine Reuben

Women's Studies Quarterly

FROM THE NATIONAL OFFICE

By Elaine Reuben "Summing up the seventies," or looking ahead to the decade now beginning, I cannot adopt the weary/wary tone of most columnists and commentators.

The 1980 listing of women's studies programs in this issue reflects a ten-percent increase in the number of programs since the last compilation, with related growth in the number of certificates and degrees programs offer. NWSA's survey sought and obtained more detailed information than in the past, and we anticipate being able to maintain and provide such data more efficiently in the future.
