Women gather to honor 150th anniversary of Seneca Falls
BY BETH MILLER
The Battalion
Feminists gathered yesterday at
the Seneca Falls Celebration to dis
cuss women’s roles in the past,
present and future development of
U.S. society.
The celebration included the
reading of a portion of a play de
picting what possibly happened
at the 1848 convention and a dis
cussion of the script and
women’s roles.
The key contributors to the
discussion were Barbara Finlay,
director of the Women’s Studies
Program; Nancy TUbbs, a gradu
ate assistant in the office of Gen
der Issues Education Services;
Denise Watson, a graduate assis
tant in the College of Education;
and Elizabeth Maret, a sociology
professor.
They discussed similarities and
differences between how women
were viewed at the time of the
convention and how they are
treated in today’s society.
One of the questions the
women posed to each other was
whether or not they would be will
ing to risk as much as the women
at the Seneca Falls Convention for
future generations of women.
'TYibbs said stereotypes of
women have not changed. She
said she felt the reason custody
cases are often won by women is
because their primary roles are
still seen as being in the home.
Watson said she felt men’s ex
cuses for shielding women from
business, politics and other typi-
cally male roles c

the convention w
