The
Murray State University Women's Center opened its doors in 1992 as a place
for all women and those interested in issues relevant to women. With such
programs as Crazy in Love and Room with a View the Center hopes to educate
Murray State students on some of the issues facing women today. The Women's
Center is aimed at creating a strong voice for change for the students
and people of Murray .
The
Center offers a resource library with a specific focus on women's issues
and self-help. We are dedicated to the support, education and personal
growth of all women. The Center is a safe place for a wide variety of
individuals to meet, learn and get involved. Our purpose is to assist
women in facing the new challenges, opportunities, and demands which are
encountered in today's ever-changing society.
We
welcome students, faculty and staff to make use of our services or share
any ideas and suggestions with us.
