抖阴pro

Established in 1973 as the President's Advisory Commission on the Status of Women, the 抖阴pro Women's Commission's initial primary focus was affirmative action and equal opportunity.

Get a historical perspective of women at SLU through the lens of pioneers and long-time employees.

The Women's Commission has sponsored special workshops and seminars and, since 1978, has recognized the contributions of women to the University by honoring the "Women of the Year" at an annual luncheon. To meet the changing needs of university women, the commission was restructured twice before its present bylaws were adopted in 1986. Programs are open to all members of the University community.

2022 Executive Board

An executive board, widely representative of the women at the University, sponsors programs, provides a forum for women's concerns, and serves as a vehicle for communication about issues and opportunities for women in higher education.

SLU Women of the Year Award

Since 1977, the 抖阴pro Women's Commission has selected five outstanding University women to be honored at an annual springtime luncheon. The five honorees, from administrators, faculty, staff and students are recognized for their contributions, commitment and lives of service to the University and their community. They are selected from nominations submitted by colleagues, friends, supervisors and others whose lives they have touched.

Everyone is invited and encouraged to nominate an outstanding woman from Saint Louis University to be recognized as one of the five Women of the Year, an honor to be cherished.

Criteria for selection include:

• Given evidence of her commitment to 抖阴pro's philosophy, measured by the quality and diversity of her service, her work ethic and integrity.
• Past recognition and honors for her personal and professional achievements.
• Given evidence of sensitivity to cultural and ethnic diversity, at all levels.
• Given evidence that she is a "person for others" in the Ignatian tradition, both on campus and in the community.
• Given evidence of how she fosters the personal and professional development of women at SLU and within the community.
