Grass Roots Women's Studies: Kansas City, Missouri, Betty Burnett

Women's Studies Quarterly

Well over one million people live in the Kansas City, Missouri/Kansas City, Kansas, metropolitan area. Kansas City, Missouri, (with echoes of Main Street boosterism) prides itself on being progressive, economically dynamic, democratic, and sophisticated. Lately, it's started singing the "Big City Blues"—crime, poverty, pollution, anomie. Memories of Mrs. Bridge, Evan Connell's wealthy matron who felt useless and incompetent, haunt the Country Club Plaza. But if Mrs. Bridge still lives in Kansas City, and if she can't find anything meaningful to do or any way to open her mind today, she's got her eyes closed.

Feminist Press Children's Books: Past, Present, And Future, The Feminist Press

Women's Studies Quarterly

The first book published by The Feminist Press - in 1971 - was a nonsexist children's book, The Dragon and the Doctor. Since then, we've published eight more: Firegirl, Nothing But a Dog, Coleen the Question Girl, I'm Like Me, Storypack, ABC Workbook, A Train for Jane, and My Mother the Mail Carrier. All nine are still in print and selling well.

In 1976 we began the process, described in the accompanying article, of re-evaluating our children's book program. We wanted to explore whether there was a need for The Feminist Press to continue to publish …

A Kentucky Dressmaker, Mrs. A.H. (Carrie) Taylor: An Examination Of Her Role In Fashion At The Turn Of The Century, Janice Centers

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

One dressmaker, Mrs. A. H. Taylor of Bowling Green, Kentucky, was studied in order to draw attention to the role of the dressmaker in American fashion. A biography of Mrs. A. H. Taylor and the business history were compiled; available designs were analyzed in relation to current fashion; and an investigation of the business organization was made. It was found that the dressmaking establishment played an important role in the lives of women of that time period. Fashionable custom fit clothing was made available to local residents and to mail-order customers. The establishment was one of the few businesses which …

Teaching About The History Of Women In Western Music, Jane M. Bowers

Women's Studies Quarterly

In the summer of 1976, a course entitled Women Musicians and Composers in Western Europe and the United States between 1100 and the Present was offered by the Women's Studies Certificate Program in collaboration with the Department of Music at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon.* Since this may have been the first course of its kind offered by any college or university, I would like to describe something of its nature, aims, and procedures; list some of the source materials that served both the students and the instructor in preparation of the course; present a selective list of recordings …

Women Artists: A Book And Slides For Classroom Use, Estelle Lauter

Although Karen Petersen and J.J. Wilson are not trained art historians, they have gathered quantities of historical information based on extensive research into a lively narrative that is a fine tribute to their training in comparative literature, and to the feminist spirit of collective research. Besides treating each of the 22 artists covered in Eleanor Tufts' Our Hidden Heritage, the …

Control Of The Curriculum And Standards, Florence Howe

Women's Studies Quarterly

The following short excerpt from Seven Years Later: Women's Studies Programs in 1976 by Florence Howe raises questions of particular importance today. We print it here to inaugurate a series of articles on Evaluating Women's Studies. Howe's full one-hundred-page report will be available free in the fall from the National Advisory Council on Women's Educational Programs, 1832 M Street NW, Washington, D.C. 20036.

Long-range, perhaps the most controversial and critical question in women's studies will concern control of the curriculum, particularly with respect to standards. That this should be a question at all suggests how quickly women's studies has achieved …

Editorial, F. H.

Women's Studies Quarterly

Cause for Celebration. Since 1969, the Clearinghouse on Women's Studies has been recording the growth of women's studies programs in colleges and universities. Originally it was a service of the Modern Language Association's Commission on the Status of Women. Then, in 1971, the Clearinghouse became an educational project of The Feminist Press. In both cases, publishing a list of women's studies programs helped students decide where to study and told faculty where they might find jobs. But there was still another reason for publishing such lists: programs like San Diego's and Cornell's (listed in 1970) and San Francisco State's, …

Sugar And Spice: That's What Children's Books Are Still Made Of, Jeanne Bracken, Sharon Wigutoff

Women's Studies Quarterly

In April 1977, at a conference on children's literature at Columbia University, an editor from a commercial publishing house responded to feminist criticism of a book. The editor stated that children's books should be free of "issues" and should not be expected to respond to every "trend" that comes along, such as the women's movement. To reduce the decade-long struggle of the women's movement to the status of a gimmick or a fad was more than merely insulting; it was a comment that ridiculed the committed efforts of feminists to create a literature—and ultimately a society—where children can find role …

Most of the programs listed below are interdisciplinary, i.e., they combine courses in literature, language or culture with work in sociology, anthropology, economics, political science, history, philosophy, psychology, biology, and related fields.

Where no Coordinator, Director, or Chairperson is listed, either the program is still in the process of organization or it has chosen to function through a committee, rather than …
