Why do women often earn less than men in the same fields? How do cultural norms about family and work shape economic decisions? Why might mothers in some regions breastfeed boys longer than girls, and what does that imply about their behavior? Why are women less likely to negotiate in the workplace, and how does this affect their careers?

In Gender and Economics (Econ 438), we unravel the fascinating ways gender impacts the workforce, family dynamics, and global economy. We examine how historical practices influence modern gender outcomes, and learn how to critically analyze policies aimed at closing the gender gap.

Register for ECON 438 in Spring 2025 to challenge your assumptions and deepen your understanding of Gender and Economics. Held T/Th from 11 to 12:15 pm.

As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting our campus community, we are offering virtual meetings to proactively discuss how potential changes to immigration-related policies and procedures may impact foreign national employees, students, and their families.

We have invited our Immigration Attorney, Larry Lebowitz, from Dentons Cohen & Grisby, to lead virtual sessions. Additional individual virtual meetings will also be made available in the future to address specific questions.

Meeting Details and links:

• Student Virtual Meeting: December 9, 2024, at 10 am-11 am.

Gators: Please return ALL green boxes you have in your possession prior to leaving campus for winter break. This will allow us to clean and inventory our stock of boxes to prepare the system for spring semester.

Failing to return a box prior to the end of the semester means you risk being charged the $7 replacement fee. No fines have been charged to your accounts for lost boxes yet, however – you still have time to return them!

Please note: return any boxes you have, even if they are not checked out to you. Simply drop them in the collection returns at McKins or Brooks.

Reach out to sustainability@allegheny.edu with any questions.

Our December Gator Gathering is this Friday, the 6th, from 4 to 5 p.m. Parkhurst is making ‘Jingle Juice’ for the occasion. Please stop by the Tippie Alumni Center to get some!
