Wellesley Centers for Women

Link: http://www.wellesley.edu/WCW/crwsub.html

The Wellesley Centers for Women, formerly the separate Stone Center and Wellesley Center for Research on Women, is an excellent site with many resources, links, and analysis on gender equity issues, for both girls and boys. Top line researchers in gender equity are housed in the Centers, including the work of Peggy McIntosh, Jean Baker Miller, Nan Stein, Susan McGee Bailey, and Deborah Tolman. Especially thoughtful is a piece by Bailey and Patricia Campbell (discussed elsewhere in the Equity Portal) on the gender wars that pits the achievements of girls in a zero-sum game against the differently damaging gender-role stereotyping that hurts boys. Nan Steins work on sexual harassment in schools remains the best that has ever been done, and here studies and guides, Secrets in Public, Flirting or Hurting?, Bullyproof, and Gender Violence/Gender Justice are invaluable aids for any school or classroom concerned with gender equity.
