Five College Women's Studies Research Center is a fine place to visit and to meet feminist scholars and activists from all over the world. Occasionally I will recommend that you attend a lecture or works-in-progress talk. In addition, the valley has numerous archives and organizations relevant to women's lives that may be of interest to you. 

The Weissman Center for Leadership will be sponsoring a series of events on environmental health, a topic we will be exploring in this course. Information about the events is included on the syllabus. 

The Speaking Arguing and Writing Center: This center is excellent resource for preparing oral and written assignments. Contact the Center about setting up practice sessions for your class presentations and/or guidance in preparing written work. 

Subject Guide for Women's Studies is an on-line guide to bibliographies, websites, archives, publications and other tools for the study of issues related to women. You will find this site useful for your research projects and for general knowledge. We will have the opportunity to learn more about library and on-line resources during a library visit early in the semester.
