91ºÚÁÏ

In the Spring of 1984, a group of 91ºÚÁÏ faculty and staff met to plan 91ºÚÁÏ’s first Women’s History Week program. The success of this event led to a revival of the 91ºÚÁÏ Association for Women, an organization for students, faculty, and staff. As its first project, the Association sought to establish a campus women’s center. In March of 1985, the 91ºÚÁÏ Women’s Center opened under the guidance of the Association, and since January of 1986, the Center has had its own Director. The Association was also successful in completing its other major project—founding the 91ºÚÁÏ Children’s Center, an on-campus daycare center.

During exams, our hours may change, and we are closed during semester breaks.

Our Mission

The Women’s Center serves the women students, faculty, and staff of 91ºÚÁÏ and women throughout the city of New Orleans.  We are dedicated to recognizing and affirming the diversity of women’s experiences based on race, ethnicity, class, sexual orientation, ability and age.  Through a range of programs and services, the Women’s Center seeks to support and enrich the academic and life experiences of female students, foster the study of women in culture, and promote and create equity for women on the 91ºÚÁÏ campus and in the community.
