Join us as we celebrate Women's History Month!
Moving Forward Together: Women Educating & Inspiring Generations
Women have always been central to shaping knowledge, community, and change—even when their labor and leadership have gone unrecognized or undervalued. Women’s History Month offers an opportunity to reflect on the many ways women have educated, inspired, and sustained generations.
The 2026 theme, Moving Forward Together: Women Educating & Inspiring Generations, invites us to consider education in its fullest sense. Learning happens not only in classrooms and laboratories, but also through storytelling, mentorship, caregiving, activism, creativity, and community leadership. Across time, women have served as knowledge keepers and builders, passing down wisdom and creating pathways for others to grow and lead.
This month encourages the university community to honor women’s contributions across disciplines, cultures, and identities, recognizing that progress is collective and deeply interconnected. We offer programs that explore how women have educated and inspired others—through scholarship and teaching, advocacy and organizing, artistic expression, care work, innovation, and institutional change.
