STC Women's Studies Committee Mission Statement:

The Women’s Studies Committee at South Texas College is devoted to the cause of equality for women.  Comprised of faculty, staff, and students, including both women and men, and encompassing ethnicities from around the globe, the Committee works to promote social, educational, political, and economic justice for women.  Through both academic and artistic means, the Committee seeks to empower women and engender community awareness about issues with a significant impact on women, such as domestic violence, human trafficking, war, immigration, health and reproduction, equality in the workplace, and the arts.  The Committee promotes equal partnership between women and men of all ages, races, ethnicities, political or religious affiliations, sexual orientations, and abilities, both locally and internationally.  We believe that only by working together can we secure human rights for all citizens of the world.
