Events offered by The Women's and Gender Studies Program

The Women's and Gender Studies Program sponsors various events each semester for students, faculty and staff, and the larger community. We bring nationally-prominent feminist speakers to campus, we host informal gatherings, and we offer field trips to events in other communities.

A current list of programs offered this semester is included below, along with an archive of past events. Note that events are listed in reverse chronological order, so scroll down!

Women's Equality Day event

Maybank Hall, rm 100, CofC campus | August 28, 2006, 7:00 p.m. | free and open to the public


Women have made great gains in the fight for equality, but there is still a fundamental perception that women and girls are not equal to men and boys. The movie "Women's Rights" introduces you to strong women who overcame violence, exploitation and discrimination and took action. After the film, panelists Jennet Robinson Alterman, Constance Anastopoulo, Laura Lageman, Dot Scott, and Janet Segal will discuss women's rights locally and nationally. Voter registration materials will be available. Sponsored by CofC WGS, Planned Parenthood Health Systems, Inc, the Charleston NAACP, and the Lowcountry Women Vote Coalition.
