Title
Advisory Board Meeting Agenda: Infusing Women of Color Material into CUNY Senior College Curriculum
Description
Dated March 23 and April 6, 1990, this agenda for the Advisory Board meeting for the Infusing Material on Women of Color into the Liberal Arts Curriculum of the City University of New York (CUNY) Senior Colleges served as a formal introduction to the project. It began with a list of CUNY board members from various women's, ethnic, minority studies programs. It included an overview of the project itself, the parameters set by the Ford Foundation, goals, strategies, and faculty development seminars. It then continued with a breakdown of the proposed curriculum seminars, the evaluation of the project, and the follow-up plans for disseminating information to the broader CUNY community. The Advisory Board also proposed discussing additional sources of support, the involvement of relevant programs and groups, and outlined the intended role of the Advisory Board and Procedures Committee.
Since 1977, the Center for the Study of Women and Society (CSWS), Graduate Center, City University of New York (CUNY) has promoted interdisciplinary feminist scholarship. The Center’s research agenda focuses on the intersectional study of gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, and nation in societies around the world. The Center co-sponsors the Women’s Studies Certificate Program and most notably, hosts the only stand-alone Women’s and Gender Studies MA Program in New York City.
