She then published "Why Women Still Can't Have It All" in The Atlantic, an eloquent and controversial article on the difficulties women face in juggling a home-life while ascending to top positions in their respective fields. A passionate plea for providing women more flexibility to "stay in the game" even after they may have deferred a dream job because of their families. "Why Women Still Can't Have It All" ignited a global debate that profoundly touched all men and women.

This year Dartmouth celebrates 40 years of coeducation.  We will mark the occasion at DCAL by hearing from a panel of students who represent different curricular and co-curricular experiences, and follow up with a conversation across constituencies which addresses some of these questions:
*What are the some of the most important gendered issues on campus?
*How are we currently teaching about these issues?  *Where are the overlaps and where are the gaps?
*What are some of the best ways to teach about such issues and how can we connect them to co-curricular activities?
*How can we collaborate across the curriculum and the co-curriculum to address such issues in a more proactive and thorough-going way?  How can students, faculty, and staff take leadership in their respective ways, including through the upcoming spring "Mentoring, Gender, and Social Justice" project?

WISE and the Center for Women and Gender at Dartmouth invite you to a special screening of the award-winning film "No Way Out but One" with the filmmaker and, in her first appearance, Holly Collins, the woman who became the first U.S. citizen to be granted asylum by the government of Netherlands where she fled to keep her children safe from her abusive ex-husband. In 1994 Holly Collins became an international fugitive when she grabbed her three children and went on the run. It all happened because a family court had ignored Holly's charges, the children's pleas, Holly's broken nose, Zackary's fractured skull, and other medical evidence of domestic violence. The family court in Minnesota gave full custody of Zackary and Jennifer to Holly's ex-husband. It was at that point that Holly came to believe she and the children had NO WAY OUT BUT ONE.
