The Women's Resource Center serves the BC community by raising awareness about the issues that affect women and men at BC and globally. It also exists to support each member of the BC community in attaining his or her personal, professional, academic, and spiritual goals.
The WRC is staffed by 7 caring and committed women who are available each day from 10-4 to help you find information you need regarding many topics facing women: women's spirituality, eating disorders, sexual assault, women's history, balancing work and family, women and diversity, etc. Please feel free to come by the Center. We welcome all visitors.
