Women's Network

The William & Mary Women's Network includes all female employees at the university -- instructional faculty, administrators, professionals, operational, classified and hourly.

The Women's Network provides a way for W&M women to support each other, help newcomers learn the ropes and the folkways of this special institution, socialize with each other, celebrate our successes and (occasionally) to advocate for each other when things get tough.
