Members of the public as well as the Ithaca College community are welcome to attend all or part of WomenSpeak. We encourage attendance by whole classes.
Our gratitude goes to the Offices of the dean of H&S, the provost, and the president for continued support of the women's studies program. For more information, contact Katharyn Howd Machan, 274 3325.
In the words of Marge Piercy, may WomenSpeak empower us all as "we remember together what we are supposed to be doing."
