In Fall 2004, the Women's Studies faculty convened a retreat to discuss
the curriculum for the MA program. Students are required to take
Foundations I the first semester, Foundations II the second semester,
and Research Methods the third semester. Librarians created a plan for
integrating information literacy into the curriculum through a
combination of assignments and in-class instruction in a sequenced
fashion and presented it at the retreat. A formal curriculum review
committee, which included the Women's Studies Librarian as a member, was
formed and the proposed information literacy integration plan was
adopted beginning Fall 2006.
