Women's Day

To celebrate MSU’s 125th anniversary, the PCOSUW is honoring women leaders, problem solvers and innovators from today and throughout MSU’s history in a presentation at the 1st Annual Diversity Symposium on March 29th. 

The HERstory of MSU highlighted amazing women who played a pivotal role in shaping Montana State throughout its 125-year history. Women like Una Herrick, the first Dean of Women, who taught women skills to promote their financial independence in the 1920s. Women like the group who challenged gender pay inequities in the 1970s. And today, the President's Commission on the Status of University Women - formed by MSU's first female president, Waded Cruzado - continues to work toward the discovery and elimination of institutional barriers to the success of women.
