WSRC One of 10 Campaign College Sites
11/2/2009 2:13:01 PM
The Women's Studies and Resource Center has been selected as one of the ten Campaign College sites for 2010. Campaign College offers a day-long training that teaches college women how to run for and win student government positions at their schools. Funded by the American Association of University Women, the Women & Politics Institute and Running Start, this unique workshop leads the way in addressing the disparity between the high percentages of women in colleges and universities and the low representation of women in student government.
With Campaign College, The Women's Studies and Resource Center will be able to bring together students with leading members of the UNCW and Wilmington communities. By encouraging more young women to run for student elected positions during their college years, more women are also prepared for local, state and federal office candidacy.
