Women’s and Gender Studies Program

Posted on , updated on by Erin Lawrimore

In the Spring of 2003, the name of UNCG’s Women’s Studies Program, which first offered courses in 1974, was changed to Women’s and Gender Studies to reflect a growing trend in women’s studies programs across the country. The new name also more accurately represented the Program’s evolving scope.
