Women's Studies Quarterly

As our third issue goes to press, we can count upwards of 500 subscribers. Before our fourth—in late June—we'd like some feedback from our regular readers. We realize that you are busy people, but a postal card will do, telling us what you do like and what you would like. We know it's useful to list conferences. At least, the organizers of the spring conference at Sacramento received a large chunk of mail as a result of our notice. But is it useful to report on conferences in news stories, as we did in our second issue and here again? …

Girl Am I Happy, The Feminist Press

Women's Studies Quarterly

Sylvia H. Hudes, principal of Seven Locks School in Maryland, writes of "the immense responsibility implicated in guiding the minds of young people," and of her sensitivity to it, adding: "To insure at least a small measure of human dignity to each student, our children are encouraged to write a personal journal of experiences, kept daily." One rewarding composition, by second-grader Karen Polis, she has shared with us.

Closeup: Utah's Course On Women And Education, Dorothy J. Schimmelpfennig

Women's Studies Quarterly

The telephone rang before my alarm clock could sound its bell. "Hello, have you seen the morning paper? The cover story on your class in women's studies has just been released!" announced my excited secretary. A second call extended an invitation to be an immediate guest on a party-line hookup with Two-way Radio, and before lunch an additional interview had been taped for airing the following morning. This startling reaction opened the way for a hectic two weeks. During this time I would be referred to as a heretic and a corrupter of youth, and my husband would be accused …

Closeup: Alternative High School Course, Barbara Gates, Adria Reich

Women's Studies Quarterly

During the past two years, we have been developing a Women's Program at The Group School, an alternative high school in Cambridge, Massachusetts for students from working-class families. At present, the program consists of The Women's Group and The Women's Course. The first is run by a nurse and teacher and focuses on sex education. The second, an English skills and social studies class, we will discuss at length. In the fall of 1971 when we taught The Women's Course (year-long, divided into three terms), we began with five girls and were later joined by most of the fifteen girls …

Review Of Female Studies Vi: Closer To The Ground, Women's Classes, Criticism, Programs: 1972, Mary Anne Ferguson

Women's Studies Quarterly

Of the twenty-one articles in Female Studies VI, twenty are "close to the ground." They deal not with polemics justifying women's studies nor revelations of male images of women but with women at work with literature about women: teaching it in the classroom, writing criticism about specific authors, establishing a communal learning experience. Section II, "Women's Studies in the Classroom," is presented in detail through specific experiences at a prestigious undergraduate college, a community college, a state college, and a law school. Some of the writers are political radicals, others are traditional academics; some are self-taught students. They all share …

Closeup: An Elementary School Classroom, Jacqueline M. Fralley

Women's Studies Quarterly

Martha Batten was beginning her sixth year of elementary school teaching when she first came into her combined fifth and sixth grade class at the Wildwood School in Amherst, Massachusetts, in the fall of 1971. Ms. Batten spoke with us about her experiences teaching and learning with this group, and described the ways in which her own changing awareness about sexism and sexroles led her to focus and design classwork. Although she found that peer group and other pressures to conform to stereotyped roles were tremendously difficult to break through, she was able to devise lessons and to grope towards …

From A Feminist Curriculum Writer, Barbara E. Lightner

Women's Studies Quarterly

I am currently working as an assistant in developing a reading program for Charles E. Merrill Publishing Company. As might be expected, I am encountering some difficulty in getting the publisher to represent girls and women in the materials to be selected for the program. I hope you can give me some suggestions, support, pressure—whatever. Briefly the situation is this. The publisher is responsible for choosing selections to go into 4th-6th grade reader anthologies. Their art department has minority quotas (20 percent black, 10 percent Spanish-descended, etc.) but none for girls and women. Although the project editor seems to be …

Closeup: Long Beach Women's Studies Program, Deborah S. Rosenfelt

Women's Studies Quarterly

The record of the Center for Women's Studies at California State University, Long Beach, is one of small, undramatic gains over a period of three years. As at other schools which have tried to develop women's studies programs, the administration has been reluctant; unlike many other schools, so has student involvement. Cal State Long Beach is a state university of 30,000 students, on the border of conservative Orange County. Most of the students work at jobs off campus. The women's liberation movement has not produced a strong women's organization on campus. Although students have enrolled in large numbers in such …
