The "Women’s History Month 2025: A History of Advocacy and Change" digital exhibit highlights materials from Special Collections and University Archives that relate to a variety of themes: writing and the arts, education, the military, and sports. Pulling on items from our collections, this exhibit includes documents, photographs, and oral histories that show ways in which women have served as forces of advocacy and change for all, whether paving the way by being a "first," by being leaders in their communities, or by creating art to express themselves and voice their beliefs and observations about the times in which they lived.
