Join Missouri State University to celebrate female empowerment through educational and social events during Women’s History Month on campus.  

The events will run March 1-27. They will help the campus and larger community gain a better understanding of what women of all shapes and sizes go through and their value to society.  

“Empowered women empower women, creating a chain reaction of success that transcends generations,” said Nina Barudzic, MSU director of multicultural programs.  

“The Multicultural Resource Center (MRC) is excited to celebrate Women’s History Month and the resilience, courage and achievements of women throughout history, recognizing that their journey toward success is a testament to the limitless potential within us all.”
