What makes a book feminist? Undergraduate Women’s Studies majors from UD’s Class of 2023 reflect on 50 works from the last half century that have educated, inspired and changed the lives of individuals in classrooms and beyond. The exhibition commemorates the founding of UD’s Women’s Studies Interdisciplinary Program in 1973, which, 50 years later, is now flourishing as the Department of Women and Gender Studies. Please join students, faculty, and community in a joyful exhibition opening reception to mark this anniversary.
