Abstract

from the CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, CHICO

Women's Studies at Chico developed from courses offered by women in their different departments, gathered to form a minor degree program in spring, 1973. Two specifically women's studies courses were designed at that time: a team-taught Introduction to Women's Studies (draws around 80 students a semester, changes women students' expectations and horizons by projecting models of achieving women) and a Senior Research Seminar designed to integrate the students' major and minor. Both are taught by the Women's Studies Coordinator. Student demand has led to the development of new courses whose content received a great deal of student input: Women's Health, Women in the Working World, Women in Art, Minority Women and the Re-Entry Program for Mature Women. There are now 20 courses offered through the Women's Studies Program. Students are designing special degrees on the B.A. and M.A. level in areas such as Women and Counseling, Psychology and Art.
