Historical NoteReturn to Top

On May 5-6, 1978, a Women's Studies Symposium was held on the campus of Eastern Washington University. It brought together scholars from colleges and universities around of the state of Washington for panel discussions on current research and thinking on women and their changing roles in society. The symposium was organized by Patricia Coontz, EWU Women's Studies director. Many of the participants prepared research papers, which were to have been edited for publication by Louis Saylor, catalog librarian at EWU's Kennedy Library. Unfortunately, plans for publication were abandoned after the Women's Studies Center did not receive a grant that would have paid the publishing costs.
