Reception to honor Women’s History Month*

The Women’s Programming Office and the Residence Life Office of Saint Mary’s are hosting a social reception from 4 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, March 14, in the Toner Student Center Lounge as part the SMU celebration of Women’s History Month. All SMU students, staff and faculty are invited.

The national theme for Women’s History Month in 2007 is “Generations of Women Moving History Forward.” During the reception, generations of SMU and Winona community women will be available to informally discuss women’s issues during the decades from 1940-2007 and standards of success for women in the various decades. Student-created posters which reflect highlights of the various decades will be on display. The reception will also feature music provided by Sigma Alpha Iota, refreshments, door prizes and a display of Women’s History Month posters from the past 20 years.
