Identification of course:
1.1
Current course prefix (subject area) and number: WOMN 421

Rationale for the revision of course title: The Women’s Studies Program is revising its name to
Women & Gender Studies Program. All courses that specify “women’s studies” in the title
should be corrected to match the new program name, with the inclusion of “and gender.” In this
case, some of the significant theories and studies address gender, thus opening up the options
for course content, while retaining the emphasis on women.
