We are moving!
The Women's Resource Center is moving! Due to other demands for our space in the University Center Satellite, the Women's Resource Center is moving into the University Center on December 4th. Until December 4th we will continue to occupy our current space and provide our regular programming. Although we will eventually end up in the space currently occupied by the Cougar Card and next to the WoodForest National Bank, we will temporarily be housed in the Lone Star room on the Second Floor of the UC across the hall from the Cougar Card location. The location will change but we will continue to provide the same great resources, services, and programming. Please come visit us in our new location as we will be ready and open for business on the first day of classes in the new semester. Plans are underway for an exciting grand re-opening celebration so stay tuned for details.
