Session Title: Are We Still Doing Women's Studies?

In recent years the focus of Women's Studies has shifted in many
contexts from women to gender, and in some cases to sexuality as a
general topic. Some feminists feel that Women's Studies programs are
outdated or unnecessary, in fact, because the view of gender has
changed.  In this session we will examine this issue, but also re-assert
the need for Women's Studies as a separate category from Gender Studies
as a whole, within the contexts of both literature and composition studies.
