Women in Higher Education

For four decades, AAC&U has provided national leadership on issues relevant to women in higher education through its Program on the Status and Education of Women (PSEW). PSEW, which is celebrating its fortieth anniversary in 2011 under the banner Beyond Limits, conducts projects and sponsors publications on such priorities as curriculum and campus climate, women's leadership, and new research on women and gender. AAC&U invites interested parties to participate in the fortieth anniversary celebration by submitting a program to the Beyond Limits Registry or making a donation to the Beyond Limits Fund.

PSEW is also the home of On Campus with Women, the longest uninterrupted national newsletter about women in higher education sponsored by a higher education association. Among its other publications, PSEW has published a series of papers on women of color in postsecondary education and has directed a National Science Foundation-supported initiative on Women and Scientific Literacy that led to Gender, Science, and the Undergraduate Curriculum. For the past seven years, PSEW has served as the coordinating office of Campus Women Lead, a multicultural grassroots network of women who offer workshops designed to mobilize women’s leadership to promote inclusive institutions through women’s multicultural alliances.
