About WRC

 

The Women’s Resource Center (WRC) of the University of Michigan-Dearborn was launched in April 2003 to serve the needs of women students, staff, faculty, and community members in response to a perceived need of faculty and staff.  The center is a division of Enrollment Management and Student Life (EMSL) under the supervision of Vice Chancellor Stanley Henderson and is staffed by Director Monica Porter, Ph.D., Program Coordinator Shareia Carter, M.L.S., Program Assistant Lee Savage, M.P.A., and several student assistants and volunteers. The WRC serves as a resource and referral center and provides programming to assist students, faculty, staff, and community members in fulfilling their education and life goals.
