STATEMENT OF PURPOSE Gtet-r The UMO Women’s Center exi.ts as a forum for the exchange of ideas and energy pertaining to feminism. We meet to share our experiences and knowledge on topics of feminism and through this exchange we expand our concepts of ourselves and our political consciousness. Sexism is ever present on campus. We’ve all dealt with this by tuning it out, but in this manner we are partly and passively responsible for its perpetuation. The avenue we’ve chosen to follow is to support each other in our roles as feminists and offer that viewpoint to ! the UMO community through films, £ speeches, discussions and publications. The Umo Women’s Center and therefore this newspaper are funded by the Student Government of UMO. The opinions expressed in the newsletter of those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Women’s Center or the General Student Senate.

  • September 2008 AAUW-Illinois by Barbara Joan Zeitz
    CountHerHistory September 2008 AAUW-Illinois by Barbara Joan Zeitz Politically Conventional Women: The first female U.S. presidential candidate appeared on the scene in 1892 when abolitionist and suffragist Victoria Woodhull was nominated by the newly formed Equal Rights Party as its U.S. presidential nominee. Frederick Douglass declined to be VP on her ticket. The second woman to run, Belva Ann Bennett Lockwood, a DC attorney, was the first woman member of the U.S. Supreme Court bar, and the first woman lawyer to argue before the Supreme Court. Lockwood ran as the Equal Rights candidate in 1884 and 1888. Her VP running mate, the first female VP candidate, was Marietta Lizzie Bell Stowe. According to Notable American Women, Lockwood received about 4,100 votes (thirty- five years before women were allowed to cast their votes) and petitioned the United States Congress to have her ballots counted. She claimed supporters had seen their ballots ripped-up, that she had "received one-half the electoral vote of Oregon and a large vote in Pennsylvania not counted but rather dumped into the waste basket. Albeit a woman of exceptional credentials, the Atlanta Constitution labeled her "old lady Lockwood" not a presumptive ‘Madame President.’ In 1892 Woodhull again ran, the last woman to run for seventy-two more years. At the 1964 Republican National Convention Senator Margaret Chase Smith (R-Maine) was nominated for president and received 27 votes on the floor, but the nomination went to Barry Goldwater. Eight years later, at the 1972 Democratic National Convention, U. S. Representative Shirley Chisholm (D-NY) ran for the U.S.

This collection does not claim to include all of his best, but simply some of the best emailed correspondence submitted by his friends and family for consideration. Richard understood early on the power of social media. He began emailing and connecting friends electronically in the early 1990s and wrote thousands of correspondences on topics ranging from serious social causes to entertaining observations about people and events. Over centuries the correspondence of great men has been published and studied after their deaths. As a college student, I remember reading the letters of Boswell and poring over the footnotes, so I could understand the context of England in his day.
