The PUC Women's Studies Program's Mission Statement
The Women's Studies Program will offer an academic curriculum informed
by feminist theories. It provides students a threefold opportunity to:
1) examine the role of gender in social institutions, in the formation of
identity, and the development of knowledge, 2) explore physical and mental
health and wellness issues of particular importance to women, and 3) increase
awareness of women's endeavors and contributions throughout time.
The Women's Studies Program will provide courses from a variety of
disciplines leading to a minor in Women's Studies and an Associate of
Arts degree with a Concentration in Women's Studies.
The Women's Studies Program will also sponsor events that address the
personal, professional, cultural, and educational needs of a diverse population of women,
both on the campus and in the community.
