Megan Sholar ’00
Megan Sholar ’00 recently had her book, Chasing Equality: Women’s Rights and US Public Policy, published by Lynne Rienner Publishers.
“Despite women’s many gains in the political, economic, and social spheres, equality remains elusive-and in some areas, ground is being lost. In this book, we trace the struggle for women’s equal rights and opportunities in the US across more than a century, focusing on issues such as workplace discrimination and harassment, reproductive rights, and work-family balance.”
