Publisher Description: This issue reports on the state of women's studies in two-year community colleges and presents the results of two programs: the Ford-funded Curriculum Mainstreaming and Teaching Initiative and the FIPSE-funded Inclusion of Women into the Curriculum, which together sponsored curriculum transformation projects at twenty community colleges nationwide. Among the areas addressed are the math, science, and technology curricula (areas which are especially important to community colleges); the inclusion of race, class, and gender in the liberal arts curriculum; developmental writing and English composition; and faculty development models in multicultural women's studies. |
