This upbeat presentation hosted by the Wellesley Centers for Women (WCW) at Wellesley College will explore the fascinating experience of NCAA Women's Basketball in the midst of March Madness...including aspects such as predictability, logic, policy, analysis, history, and significant milestones. The talk will be led by a knowledgeable group of NCAA Women's Basketball fans:
Georgia Hall, Ph.D., associate director of WCW and director of the National Institute on Out-of-School Time (NIOST), a program of WCW
Laura Pappano, inaugural writer-in-residence at WCW and an experienced journalist who has written extensively about gender equity issues in sports
Bridget Belgiovine, M.Ed., director of athletics and chair of Physical Education, Recreation and Athletics at Wellesley College
Lisette DeSouza, Ph.D., postdoctoral research scientist working with scholars at NIOST and WCW
Laura McGeary '19, research intern at NIOST and member of the Wellesley College basketball team
For those who are unable to attend in person, many programs are streamed live on facebook.com/wcwonline and the videos are archived at wcwonline.org/video.
