Collection Historical Note
The Women’s Caucus was formed in 1996 to form a support and advocacy group for women on campus. Their mission states that they aim to ”improve women work, study and life conditions in the community, to educate the community about gender issues and to achieve gender equity among students faculty and staff. The group is open to the women in the entire Saint Michael’s community and includes subgroups that work on various issues. The committee was instrumental in creating the SMC Women’s Center, which serves as an actual location where the community can address those issues. The Womens Center is staffed by a director who is an employee of the college. The Caucus continues to provide mentoring, a Gender Studies forum, and advocacy.
