The purpose of Center is to advance an environment where people can live and work together in equity, understanding, and mutual respect.

The Center strengthens the sense of shared purpose throughout the University by addressing gender issues on campus and working to ensure the integration of women into every facet of the University community. It contributes to the University’s commitment to community service and social justice by providing leadership and resources on gender issues.

In order to overcome “the legacy of systematic discrimination against women,” described in the Jesuits’ 34th Congregation document, the Center is dedicated to empowering women to reach their fullest potential. However, it recognizes that gender discrimination adversely affects men and women. Therefore, we recognize the need for both women and men to work together for gender equality. The Center respects cultural and racial diversity as an expression of this commitment to equality, working to dismantle the internal and external structures of discrimination in order to develop new models for gender equality and justice.
