National Women's History Month is designated to celebrate women's contributions to the United States and recognize women's specific achievements over American history in various fields.
Throughout the History of AM-SA, we have celebrated March as such while recognizing the current powerful women we have across campus actively making history.
This year, the heritage committee and student involvement partner to host Women's Employment Week, a week of programming designed to celebrate and support women. The events ranged from sexual health to self-defense and small women-owned businesses selling their goods.
Texas A&M University-San Antonio's hosted its fourth annual Jag Women Rock! Awards at the end of National Women's History Month. The awards are designed to highlight some of this past year's outstanding female alumni, current students, faculty, and staff. Ten awards were handed out, all named after remarkable women of notoriety, from A&M-SA's own Dr. Cynthia Teniente-Matson to philanthropist Oprah Winfrey.
This year most notably, the Frida Kahlo Award was created to highlight "a woman who has a gift for making anything she touches come to life. She is gifted in the arts and creates masterpieces."
