                                                  have a request regarding Women's 
                                                  Studies at colleges and universities. 
                                                  I am going to be giving a brief 
                                                  history of the development of 
                                                  the study of gender (particularly 
                                                  WS) in the U.S. as part of a 
                                                  extension program sponsored 
                                                  by the Hokkaido University of 
                                                  Education in Sapporo, Japan. 
                                                     
                                                  I would like to include some 
                                                  statistics regarding the number 
                                                  of Women Studies, Gender Studies 
                                                  programs, students, faculty, 
                                                  journals, etc. currently in 
                                                  the U.S. If you have any information 
                                                  I would be really pleased to 
                                                  receive it. Getting my hands 
                                                  on such resources from Japan 
                                                  has been more difficult than 
                                                  I had imagined. Thank you in 
                                                  advance. Alfredo
