Mission

The Provost's Advisory Committee on Women's Concerns (PACWC) was created by former Provost Smith in March 1983 to investigate the situation of women at Pitt; identify areas in which the University could improve responsiveness to women's concerns; suggest alternative solutions for perceived problems; and represent woman in all areas of the University, including teaching, research, administration, and support services.

 

PACWC seeks to ensure a productive educational and work environment for faculty, staff, and students, particularly in areas related to women's concerns.  It focuses on general issues of campus climate and programs as they affect women throughout the University.  PACWC seeks to assist the Provost and the University community through its mandate (see By-Laws).

The committee is broadly representative of all areas of the University community and includes faculty members, staff, administrators, and students. PACWC participates in interviews of candidates for senior academic administrator positions and co-sponsors, with Women's Studies and the Provost's Office, an annual reception welcoming women faculty.
