NJAWHE 10th Anniversary
March 2, 2018
In honor of 10 years of scholarship, we wanted to offer a look back at where we’ve been and celebrate a decade of contributors and collaborators. Enjoy this trip down memory lane!
Summer 2005 – Proposal for the Journal About Women in Higher Education is approved by the NASPA Board as recommended by the Center for Women. Here is the original description of the journal:
Description
The intended purpose of the JWHE is to explore the needs, experiences, and development of women in higher education. Accordingly, this journal is designed to provide a forum for discussion and analysis of the unique characteristics, experiences, and development of women students. This journal will also explore institutional, administrative, and faculty issues, roles and politics as they pertain to women. It will examine curriculum, pedagogy, and chilly classroom/institutional climate issues for women. Finally, it will include gender issues, women’s issues, and topics central to women’s centers. More globally, the journal takes a multidisciplinary approach in examining the issues that face women in higher education.
