The College of Arts and Sciences was recently awarded a grant from the American Association of University Women (AAUW) to create a Campus Action Project (CAP) for the university community featuring creative activism projects that empower women and girls. #hearmelead —The Women’s Leadership Project @ UDC was the result! This spring, more than 50 students have participated in this student-led program.
