In the spring of 1994, Virginia Tech’s first women’s center opened in two rooms in Lane Hall.
Funding from the Provost’s Office was sparse, but the founding group of Virginia Tech women — called the Coordinating Council on Women’s Concerns — managed to sustain and grow the new office for the next two decades.
The Women’s Center commemorated its 20th anniversary with an open house and art exhibit at its on-campus center on Wednesday.
