Augsburg College - Anne Pederson Women's Resource Center

Whoever you are, you're welcome here.

Dr. Jessica Nathanson Welcome to the Anne Pederson Women’s Resource Center. We offer services and programming specifically for women, but this is a space that is open to anyone, whether or not you’re a woman, whether or not you’re a feminist, whether or not you take Women’s Studies classes. Come on in, heat up your lunch in the microwave, check out our books and magazines, lounge on the sofa and chat with friends, or work on your paper in the seminar room.

The Center is a great place to study or relax between classes. But we’re more than that – we also hold healthy potluck lunches twice a month and host Stitch-n-Bitch on Monday nights and study hours on Tuesday nights. We house the Aunties’ Closet, a great place to pick up an interview or casual outfit (or to donate your gently-used clothing). We have career and academic resources for internships, calls for papers, and graduate programs in the area of sex and gender. Check out our upcoming and ongoing events to learn more about who we are and what we do!

We’re on the second floor of Sverdrup, just above the Enrollment Office (where you get your student ID cards). Come on up!
