Gretchen Edwalds-Gilbert, acting vice president for academic affairs and dean of faculty, discussed the value of a women’s college education in BestColleges.com’s overview of top women’s colleges. “Within the curriculum, students learn about gender and women’s studies, and faculty are conscious to include readings from a diverse array of scholars in courses across disciplines,” Edwalds-Gilbert says. “Framing knowledge in this way recognizes the many contributions of women and people of color helps students see themselves as knowledge creators.”
