Feminist United provides students with an opportunity to be involved with women's issues, both on campus and in the world at large. We have several objectives:
* Working to bring speakers to campus (including faculty and community members) to speak on a variety of topics focusing on women's issues in the United States and around the world.
* Sponsoring group discussions to improve awareness of feminist/women's issues and broaden our understanding through exposure to a variety of different viewpoints.
* Working with Sister of Nefertiti, La Fuerza, and the Student Diversity Board to create open dialogue about issues of diversity/ethnicity and combating racism.
* Working with SAGA to create open dialogue about issues related to sexual orientation and combating homophobia.
* Providing a link between the Women's Studies Program and the campus at large.
* Creating an awareness of volunteer opportunities within the South Bend community, relating specifically to women.
* Supporting the creation and maintence of smaller taskforces focusing on specific feminist/women's issues, such as body image, sexuality, and anti-racism.
