50多年来，妇女中心一直是我生命中重要的一部分. 1972年6月，作为一名年轻的计算机专业人员，我开始在365滚球官网工作, 在数学或计算机科学领域，几乎没有女性为我树立榜样. 当妇女中心于当年10月下旬开业时, 我参加了它的第一个棕色袋子计划, “妇女的法律地位.” The programs and informal gatherings provided me with role models who were successful professionals in other areas: 教师, 教练, 员工及社区. 这些项目也让我看到了女性所面临的问题. 例如, 我曾希望买一所房子, but I learned from that first program that a woman could not get credit in her own name, 她需要一个男人来共同签署她的贷款或抵押贷款. It wasn’t until the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974 that women could get credit on their own. The Women’s Center not only helped me become more informed on issues affecting women and minorities, 它也为我提供了一生的朋友，我在那里遇到了.

2006年的历史,
The University of Idaho Women’s Center became the beating heart of my time on campus and forever changed my trajectory in life. 来自一个有限的背景, the Women’s Center opened my imagination to treasure troves of buried stories and practices of solidarity. The Women’s Center is a space of community and shared learning which is rooted in a simple message: “Your life and experiences are valuable, 不管你是谁.“如果没有这颗解放的宝石的影响，我就不会有现在的辉煌. 伊利诺伊大学妇女中心是宝石州中一颗罕见而美丽的石榴石.

The 女性中心 was a foundational space for me where I could jump-start a career in Media and Communications. I was the first editor of the 女性中心 blog and helped relaunch the Feminist 所有iance (formerly F.L.A.M.E.), a student organization built around identifying initiatives to support gender equity across campus. 我从2012年开始报道, 在俄勒冈州的报社工作, 科罗拉多州和爱达荷州, 撰写医疗保健, 行为健康, 住房, 法院, 社会运动和能源. My favorite aspect of working in newsrooms was connecting with community members who wanted to share their stories. In 2017, 我转向了政治沟通, 在华盛顿社区行动网络工作, where we won renter protections with community-led organizing through state legislation and in a ballot initiative in a Seattle suburb. 自2022年3月起, I've been working as a Communications Specialist for the Department of 社区 and Human 服务 with King County. I’m happy to be a public servant in an agency whose goal is to build up equitable systems.

当我想到我在365滚球官网的本科教育, 我不禁想起了妇女中心. I am reminded of a place where I felt comfortable expressing myself and learning from others. I worked at the 女性中心 for three years as a work-study employee and enjoyed everything that came with the job. The 女性中心 has always made sure that everyone feels included and supported beyond academics. 在这里，我培养了一些技能，这些技能一直伴随着我, and I am immensely grateful to all the staff that continue to make it a safe space for so many students. 我现在是华盛顿大学法学院的一名法律系学生, and everything I learned and gained from the 女性中心 continues to benefit my education and career. I hope the 女性中心 can continue to assist more students in the years to come.
