What is Women's Studies?

Women's studies at UNT promotes the academic study of women's achievements, roles, and experiences, both historically and across cultures. This multi-disciplinary program fosters understanding of the diverse realities of women's lives by encouraging teaching and research about the ways in which class, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and age shape female experiences. Courses in women's studies offer valuable perspectives about women in the family and at work, in literature, in politics, in Western thought, and in world cultures.

"We stand now where two roads diverge. But unlike the roads in Robert Frost's familiar poem, they are not equally fair. The road we have long been traveling is deceptively easy, a smooth superhighway on which we progress with great speed, but at its end lies disaster. The other fork of the road -- the one "less traveled by" -- offers our last, our only chance to reach a destination that assures the preservation of the earth."
   -- Rachel Carson
