Women's Studies Quarterly

Dear Friends, Although she warned severely against "condescension," the writer of the article "reporting" on feminism at the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho (Women's Studies Newsletter, Summer 1974) struck me as having enough of that quality and a good deal to spare, when it comes to the state of things there. Just a little swat such as "U.S. 95, the only federally numbered goat trail in the country" struck a pretty sour note, and of course she is not even accurate (unless "county" was intended instead of "country") and certainly conveys no image of the situation in …

Introducing High School Students To The Women's Movement, Sharon Henricks,, Etta Magnusen, Jodi Wetzel

Women's Studies Quarterly

But every time I got into an argument with either a chauvinist male or a chauvinist female, I found I lacked the arguments to support my point. I found that some people don't believe that discrimination is wrong or that everyone should have an equal chance. This class gave me good, solid arguments.—a college student.

For the second year the Minnesota Women's Center (MWC) and the Living-Learning Center (LLC, a part of University College) at the University of Minnesota are offering a directed-study project, "Introducing High School Students to the Women's Movement." Two main goals of the two-quarter, six …

Another U.S. Congressperson, Senator Charles C. Percy, has introduced legislation to promote equal educational opportunities for women. The Women's Equal Educational Opportunity Act of 1974, like the Women's Educational Equity Act introduced by Representative Patsy Mink and Senator Walter Mondale, "is an attempt to call a halt to the processes that have robbed women of their potential. ... " Senator Percy contends that landmark laws such as Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 are alone not enough to ensure equal educational opportunity for women. While the Mink and Mondale bill will "create a new program to support a …

Letter To The Editors, The Feminist Press

Women's Studies Quarterly

I just read your report on education in Minnesota in the Women's Studies Newsletter (Winter 1974). I'm pleased that you gave some coverage to Minnesota, which, from my current geographical vantage point, seems like a progressive paradise. However, the emphasis in your paragraph on the State Board of Education is somewhat misleading.

You mention the State Department of Education's certification requirement and then add that "groups like the feminist Emma Willard Task Force" have been used to teach the sexism component. Actually, there would be no such certification requirement without the Emma Willard Task Force. I am one of the …

New Overview Of Women's Studies Courses, Deborah Silverton Rosenfelt

The growth of women's studies in the past two years has been phenomenal.

There are now well over 2000 courses and over eighty programs. Geographically they range in the United States from Orono, Maine to Honolulu, Hawaii, …

Mills College Conference On Women's Education, Kathy Salisbury

Women's Studies Quarterly

A national conference, "Beyond Sexism: Educating Women for the Future," was held November 9, 10, and 11 at Mills College in Oakland, California with the purpose of sharing new ideas and new questions on the future of women's education. Approximately 500 women (and a handful of men), many of them from the California state college and university system, attended the Ford Foundation sponsored conference.

I arrived in Oakland with luggage consisting for the most part of boxes and folders of papers, newsletters, and brochures from the University of Massachusetts School of Education Women's Caucus and the University's Everywoman's Center, a …

Kalamazoo: A Model For Change, Carol Ahlum

Women's Studies Quarterly

The Superintendent of Schools in Kalamazoo, Michigan has made one of his performance objectives the elimination of sexism in schools. This action came at the suggestion of his administrative staff, and since September all school personnel have been directed to take this goal as one of their objectives. As the Superintendent informed me, these objectives are not rhetorical. All administrators and teachers are required to keep descriptive records about how they are eliminating sexism.

This fall, Kalamazoo's elementary school teachers are countering sex-stereotyping in a newly-purchased Houghton Mifflin reading program by using a supplementary book-length collection of revisions to their …

Where Are The Women Superintendents?, Jacqueline P. Clement

Women's Studies Quarterly

Women in elementary and secondary education have watched with envy these past few years as their sisters in higher education formed caucuses and affirmative action committees; consulted with and documented for HEW officials their institutions' hiring practices; and generally moved ahead to seek new opportunities in employment and training for women. Women were in demand in university presidents' offices, as assistants to deans, and as members of advisory committees to prestigious councils. Colleges and universities holding government contracts were responding to Presidential Executive Order 11246 which required them to demonstrate that their hiring practices were non-discriminatory with regard to sex …

Black Feminists Organize Nationally, Barbara Smith

Women's Studies Quarterly

On Saturday, December 1, Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm declared to a jubilant group of listeners: "I am so glad to be here this morning. I said that if there were only six of us here this morning, it would be a beginning." Over four hundred Black women had gathered in New York to hear and applaud Ms. Chisholm as she gave the keynote address for the First Regional Conference of the National Black Feminist Organization.

All of us who were there, despite our abundant numbers and far-flung geographic origins, knew why Ms. Chisholm had anticipated a turnout of under ten. Never …
