Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Virginia, 2004.

This study examines undergraduate and post-baccalaureate activism on the part of graduates of a Women's Studies program at a Southeastern university. Women's Studies alumni were described their activism during college, whether they identified as feminist during that period, their notions of the meaning of the term "activism," and if they considered themselves feminist or activist today. Twelve volunteers participated in subsequent in-depth interviews. The majority of survey respondents stated that they identified as feminists and a slightly smaller number as activists during college and today. Primary loci of college activism were feminist anti-violence agencies and feminist student groups. Respondents' current employment or graduate studies leaned toward social change work (if not explicitly feminist) such as teaching, mental health work, and the law. Others found ways to engage in unpaid feminist advocacy work. Interviewees reported that parents who modeled an ethic of service were influential; neutral or negative responses by parents had little impact on their feminism. Other influences on level and type of undergraduate activism were: support and mentoring by faculty, opportunities to understand feminism through projects or internships that linked theory with praxis, and having the time to get involved. Individuals who devoted a significant amount of time in undergraduate leadership positions and feminist activities outside the classroom stated this was where they honed their organizing and leadership skills; these women were more likely than other interviewees to continue their commitment to feminist social change work after graduation.Subjects--Topical Terms:
