Welcome to the Women's Studies Program

at Slippery Rock University

"One of the devastating weaknesses of university learning, of the store of knowledge and opinion that has been handed down through academic training, has been its almost total erasure of women's experience and thought from the curriculum, and its exclusion of women as members of the academic community . . . . [But] despite the inevitable accusations of 'unscholarly,' 'group therapy,' 'faddism,' etc., despite backlash and budget cuts, women's studies are still growing, offering to more and more women [and men] a new intellectual grasp on their lives, a new understanding of our history, a fresh vision of the human experience, and also a critical basis for evaluating what they hear and read in other courses, and in the society at large."
