la rcotics Anonymous, international women students, ape and incest survivors, and lesbian and/or bisexual iscussion groups. Unfortunately our society, on and ff campus, looks at these centres as radical. Centres uch as the one at Simon Fraser have been vandalized ‘equently. Many people have the misconceived

otion that feminists are lesbians and these centres

e strictly a place for lesbians to hang out. Nothing ould be further from the truth. My survey showed at the womyn who frequent these centres range in

se from 18-64 years, single to widowed, from all alks of life. Simon Fraser keeps a logbook and as any as 2000 women (campus population is 15,000) ¢ seen each semester. I believe the Concordia

entre explains the true nature of a womyn’s centre: The life and heart of a centre is an expression of the omen who use the services and of the women who joose to get involved with the groups and commit- es or with staffing the centre.’” We must affirm

id celebrate our diversities, ourselves and our wis- ym. We must be flexible in order to make a centre id its activities accessible to womyn with different leds and circumstances. Here on our campus we have )meeting place, no womyn’s resource centre, no ison with other womyns’ special interest groups. ith the establishment of a minor in women’s studies re at UPEI, it is now important to establish a place twomyn to go to discuss important issues and feel e support of other womyn on campus in their strug- e to become free. If you are interested in becoming bart of the process we welcome your input ona omen’s Advisory Committee. I realize womyn idents are very busy people but I promise you any

4 moment you have will be welcome support and

’ more we work cooperatively together the faster
