Sent on behalf of Dr. Saldivar-Hull, Director of the Women's Studies Institute and Women's Studies Program Dear COEHD Faculty, Staff and Students, Every year UTSA's Women's Studies Institute celebrates Women's History Month by hosting multiple events throughout March. You and your students are cordially invited to attend our Women's History Month Opening Reception, which will take place from 12:30 pm to 2:30 pm on Tuesday, March 6th in Ballroom 1 HUC 1.01.06. We would be delighted if you could attend and experience first-hand the efforts the Women's Studies Institute is working on. The Agenda includes remarks by President Taylor Eighmy and Dean Margo DelliCarpini. In addition, we will present our Women's Advocate of the Year Award to a deserving San Antonio community leader. Our theme for this year's Women's History Month is "Nevertheless, We Persist." We are happy to announce that our keynote speaker will be Ms. Erika Prosper Nirenberg the first lady of San Antonio, chairwoman of the San Antonio Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (SAHACC), Director of Customer Insights for H-E-B, and an advocate for child literacy and leadership. As we celebrate our 15th anniversary, please join us in continuing our mission of raising social consciousness and working toward the empowerment of women and girls. We look forward to seeing you and your students there.
