The United States Congress and the State of New Jersey traditionally have designated March as Women's History Month. Montclair State University joins in this celebration by pausing to acknowledge the many accomplishments that women of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds have made in our society.
Women have a rich and exciting history in our country.
They have been in the forefront of social movements for women's suffrage, civil rights and social empowerment, and they have played a pivotal role in our social, cultural and intellectual development. Despite these accomplishments, their struggle continues as they seek full equality in their social, political and economic lives-in the home, in the workplace and in public service. At Montclair State University, women have enhanced our campus community with invaluable leadership and intellectual achievements. They are members of our Board of Trustees, faculty, staff and student body. In recognizing their numerous contributions, we reaffirm our commitment to provide them with equal educational and employment opportunities.
