This week in Women's Month 2023
From: Women's Center at Virginia Tech
March is Women’s Month at Virginia Tech!
Women’s Month recognizes, affirms, and showcases the achievements, concerns, and diversity of women. A feminist perspective — one that encourages and advances women of all races, political affiliations, national origins, religions, ages, abilities, sexual orientations, gender identities, and income levels — underlies all our programming. The annual event occurs in March in conjunction with National Women’s History Month. The theme for Women's Month 2023 is "A Chorus of Voices," complementing the National Women's History Month theme, "Celebrating Women Who Tell Our Stories."
Women’s Month has historically represented Virginia Tech’s broad commitment to celebrating diverse and inclusive communities. To honor this ongoing commitment, the Women’s Month 2023 calendar highlights programs and events aligned with the Virginia Tech Principles of Community.
Join us for an engaging month of programs, events, and initiatives that promote, advance, and celebrate women at Virginia Tech and beyond! The full calendar of Women’s Month 2023 programs and events is available here. Please check regularly for any program additions and/or updates in event details.
Questions about specific programs should be directed to the contact listed on the calendar. General questions about the Women’s Month celebration at Virginia Tech can be directed to Jessie Meltsner.
