Women’s Studies Changes Lives

Posted on June 29th, 2012 by Loraine Hutchins

I’ve been teaching Introduction to Women’s Studies for a few years, both face-to-face and online. Most students find this course engaging and enriching. Recently, one student who enrolled  in my online class at the last minute found the material so enlightening it helped determine her academic goals.

Desiree Jamerson earned her Associate’s Degree at Montgomery College this spring, and she plans to continue her education in Women’s Studies and to eventually acquire a Ph.D. and to teach.

As an educator, I love it when one of my classes opens doors in a student’s mind and changes her or his life so dramatically for the good. View the video to hear her story!

  1. I love it when students announce/proclaim that they’ve decided to become a teacher. It warms the soul.

    I took the class and it is a wonderful class. The teacher is great and the knowledge of different information is incredible. I advise this class for all (especially men)and I think this is a powerful movement that Ms. Hutchins is doing… keep up the great work..
