    <description>The Center for Women's Studies and Programs serves all members of the campus community. While we focus on women's issues and experiences, the Center is open to both men and women, and serves those with formal and informal connections to the University. We recognize that there is no one "women's" experience, and strive to address and celebrate the diversity among women, and the commonalities that we share.</description>
