[audio:https://bcrw.barnard.edu/podcasts-bcrw/2011/BCRW40-Women-Literature-and-Feminist-Learning.mp3|titles=BCRW40 Women’s Literature and Feminist Learning]

Continuing education in the humanities is an extremely important, yet often overlooked subset of higher education. Over the years, BCRW has sought to support continued opportunities for feminist learning through a diverse series of course offerings. Current and past BCRW instructors, along with scholars of feminist literature, will discuss the value of intergenerational feminist education. Panelists include Leslie Calman, Heather Hewett and Stephanie Staal. This discussion, moderated by Lori Rotskoff, took place on the first day of Activism and the Academy: Celebrating 40 Years of Feminist Scholarship and Action, a two-day conference held September 23-24, 2011 in honor of the 40th anniversary of the Barnard Center for Research on Women.
