Student enrollment at the university was 2:1 male to female, as was the movement, and despite talk of equality, the campus movement was driven by white males who treated women poorly. Women spoke of their experiences in the movement and their treatment by males; SDS organizer Vivian Rothstein visited campus and raised women’s political awareness; Patsy Parker, a champion of women students’ issues, was elected first woman student-body president. A midnight women’s rally on the quad fell flat, and national SDS meetings failed to address women’s issues, while other issues such as ecology, black power, and racial justice expanded the movement’s focus.
Keywords: Women’s liberation, second-class citizens, male domination, ecology, racial justice, Patsy Parker, Vivian Rothstein, SDS
