The women's studies program maintains a liaison with community, state and national groups concerned with women s issues such as the American Association of University Women, Wisconsin Women s Network, Wisconsin Women s Council, National Women s Conference, National Council of Women's Organizations, and the International Federation of University Women. Students have access to the on-campus Women s Resource Center, which contains a range of resource materials dealing with current women s issues as well as with national and international women s networks and groups. Through financial support from the UW-Eau Claire Foundation and privately sponsored awards, the Women s Studies Awards Celebration recognizes exemplary student projects and research nominated by faculty members. These projects emphasize the roles and contributions of women while demonstrating the importance of creative student-faculty collaboration. Unlike many other public universities, classes are not taught by teaching assistants.
Students work alongside interesting professors who inspire learning.
