University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Women's Concerns Coalition.

The Women's Concerns Coalition formed in the summer of 1988 in preparation for the installation of Chancellor Paul Hardin. Its purpose was to allow leaders from various campus organizations that dealt with issues of concern for women to present their views and priorities to the new Chancellor with a unified voice. Following Chancellor Hardin's installation, the group regularly discussed University reports and policies pertaining to women. Meetings and discussions on such topics became the basis for coalition statements and recommendations that were presented to campus administrative leaders. These statements dealt with issues ranging from child care to faculty development to harassment policies. Among the groups represented in the coalition were the University Affirmative Action Office, the American Association of University Professors, the Association for Women Faculty, the faculty's Committee on the Status of Women, the Women's Studies Program, the Black Faculty Caucus, the Chancellor's Advisory Committee, the State Employees' Association, the Office of the Provost, and the ad hoc Sexual Harassment Committee.
