Texas Woman's University in Denton, TX has recently approved
just such a program as an extension of the ongoing development of
undergraduate coursework. Feel free to contact me if you would like
additional information.

Heather,
I have a Master of Letters Degree in English with an emphasis in Women's
Studies that I obtained from Middlebury College in 1995. I've just accepted
a position as the Executive Director of a Women's Services Organization with
offices in two counties in California. I also teach English and Eco-Feminism
classes at a local community college. I will be presenting at the University
of New Mexico Women's Studies Conference in Albuquerque in March. Winona
LaDuke is the keynote speaker. It should be a really terrific conference
this year. I too am looking for universities with an excellent program in
Women's Studies as I want my PhD. I too would appreciate hearing
recommendations anyone has in this regard.
Sue

NYU LAW JOURNAL HOSTS FEBRUARY 21 COLLOQUIUM:
"THE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES SURROUNDING
SPACE EXPLORATION AND DEVELOPMENT"
New York University's Environmental Law Journal will present a one-day
colloquium,
"The Environmental Issues Surrounding Space Exploration and Development,"
on Friday, February 21, from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., in Greenberg Lounge,
Vanderbilt Hall, New York University School of Law, 40 Washington
Square South. Admission is $10 at the door. Students and faculty with valid
identification will be admitted free.
The recent crash of the Russian Mars '96 space probe over Chile and Bolivia
is clear evidence of the effect human activity in outer space can have on the
environment. This is a critical time in legal history: space exploration
and development agendas worldwide can still be made compatible with
environmental law and sensitive to environmental issues.
The Keynote speaker will be introduced by John Sexton, Dean of NYU School
of Law.
The colloquium is sponsored by the Environmental Law Journal, a student-run
journal devoted to the analysis of a broad range of legal environmental
issues.
The colloquium will feature three panel discussions:
"Space Debris and Other Objects Cluttering Space" will examine the extent
of the environmental hazards posed by space debris to Earth, its
inhabitants, and future space stations and missions; the international and
environmental legal response to space debris threats; and possible
liability and insurance regimes for handling environmental damage caused by
space debris.
"Satellites: An Environmental Tool" will address the use of geostationary
satellites, the Global Positioning System, and remote sensing to monitor
the environment. The worldwide coverage and accuracy of satellites provides
the unprecedented opportunity to forecast weather conditions, detect global
warming, predict general geologic and climatic changes, and track
compliance with
environmental laws.
"Allocation of Space Resources and the Environment" will consider whether
outer space should be used for environmental purposes, whether space is the
"common heritage of mankind," and whether privatization may be the most
efficient way to develop space and gain environmental benefits.
Prominent speakers will include: Amb. Edward Finch, Michael Gerrard, Joseph
Loftus, Delbert Smith, Jonathan Epstein, Prof. Joanne Gabrynowicz, Dr.
Amanda Moore, Robert Puterski, Prof. Mohammed Bekhechi, Prof. Glenn
Reynolds, and Prof.
Lawrence Roberts.
Each year, the Environmental Law Journal sponsors a major conference on an
emerging issue in environmental law. Scholarly articles and remarks
presented at the colloquium are published in a special issue of the journal.
