Task Force on the Status of Women
The establishment of this task force in 1994 was the starting point for the discussion of the status of women at IU Indianapolis. In August 1994, Kathleen Warfel, President of the IU Indianapolis Faculty Council and William Plater, Executive Vice Chancellor and Dean of the Faculties, established this group and defined it’s charge. Chaired by Barbara Wilcox (8/94 to 10/95) and Rebecca Porter (11/95 to 5/96), the task force completed its report in May 1996 and recommended the establishment of the Office for Women and the creation of a Commission on Women.
