A milestone century for women’s rights

The UNM Center for the Study of Voting, Elections and Democracy, in conjunction with the UNM Political Science Department and Institute for Social Research is hosting Christina Wolbrecht, professor of Political Science at the University of Notre Dame. Her presentation, titled ‘Myth and Reality: A Century of Votes for Women’ is being held Wednesday, Feb. 12 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the Willard Room of Zimmerman Library. The event is free and open to the public.
