Women's Studies attempts to identify its minors as early as possible. If you are interested in minoring in Women's Studies, please drop by the Women's Studies Office and fill out a minor interest form. By filling out this form you do not obligate yourself to complete a minor; however, it shows us that you have an interest and we will keep you informed of developments. After completion of 60 semester hours at WSU, we will complete a "Petition for Certifying a Minor (Rule 54)" form which will be filed with the Registrar's Office.
