National Association for Women in Catholic Higher Education
Historical note
The National Association for Women in Catholic Higher Education (NAWCHE) was founded in 1992 by Sharlene Nagy Hesse-Biber, professor of sociology and director of Women's Studies at Boston College. The association's primary goals were to facilitate support among women working in higher education at Catholic institutions; to create, organize, and disseminate work for justice for those women; and to provide a forum for members to speak out on issues relevant to them, especially issues unique to Catholic institutions. In 2009, Mary-Antoinette Smith, professor of English and of Women, Gender & Sexuality Studies at Seattle University, became executive director, and the administrative home of NAWCHE passed to Seattle University.
