    Clark 1 Maureen Clark Senior Thesis Dr. Paul Schuette 3/24/2019 Girls Just Wanna Have Equality: Sexism in the 1980’s Music Industry By the 1980s, women were finally making their way into the American workforce. One can see that in many aspects of 1980s pop culture from the shoulder pads in women's suits in an attempt to make them appear more masculine and powerful as well as female empowerment movies like “Working Girl”. However, this rise in female empowerment was definity experienced most within the music, where female artist like Madonna to The Go-Go's were dominating the charts and the workplace. Despite the success that they were achieving, however, most women were still struggling to be seen as authentic or genuine, and most importantly they were fighting to be on an equal playing field as men. Webster's Dictionary defines marginalized as: “(of a person, group, or concept) treated as insignificant or peripheral”. Women have always been a marginalized group within the music industry since its conception, just like in almost every aspect of history. However, by the 1980s, women were entering the workforce at a more rapid rate than ever before, this affected every aspect of American culture along with its music. Despite more representation within the workforce, women in music were still often dismissed, despite the fact that many women and girl groups were making some of the most successful music during that decade. One reason for Clark 2 this had to do with the rise of MTV along with the sexism that has always existed in the music industry.

  • Founder & Chairman of Electro Scan Inc
    CHUCK HANSEN Founder & Chairman of Electro Scan Inc. Chuck Hansen has a pretty cool life outside of trenchless technology. He has played his saxophone on stage with the likes of Tower of Power, Huey Lewis, Todd Rundgren, to name a few. His passion for rock n’ roll music runs deep — rooted in his childhood and in full bloom as an adult. He plays live music with rock stars, as well as owns a recording studio, where he records his own music (he’s recorded 24 CDs) in addition to other artists. Hansen is known in trenchless circles as the founder and chairman of Electro Scan Inc. (2011) and was founder of Hansen Information Technologies (1983), which developed asset management systems for water and sewer agencies. Electro Scan is an alternative to CCTV cameras to certify a trenchless lining and rehab projects as “leak-free.” He’s been playing music for more than 50 years, first learning the clarinet from his brother in the second grade then switching to the big baritone sax in the eighth grade. By high school, he was tabbed to play in the famous Monterey Jazz Festival’s All-Star Band competition, allowing him to take the stage with the likes of Dizzy Gilliespe, Louis Belson and Clark Terry. He went on to play in the U.C. Berkeley Jazz Band. Today, Hansen plays, in addition to the baritone sax, the bass sax and the contrabass sax. His “real world” job sometimes inhibits when he can play but he says he does each with as much passion and gusto as he can; each requires such enthusiasm and commitment to be successful, he says.
