Women's networks

The Virginia Network

The Virginia Network is a program of the American Council on Education's (ACE) Office of Women in Higher Education. The Network is designed to promote women's leadership in higher education and society; to create an educational, social, and political climate in which women can participate equally with men; to facilitate connections among women in various sectors with shared goals; and to foster strategic alliances and facilitate effective partnerships between women and men in the workplace. For more information about the ACE Virginia Network please visit their website at http://www.ace.prov.vt.edu.

The Virginia Grapevine: African-American Women’s Higher Education Collaborative

 

Initiated in 2008, the Grapevine started with a group called the Roots—a group of well respected academics and administrators from across the state interested in fostering a community of healthy, productive, and balanced Black/African-American women engaged or interested in higher educational careers. This organization brings together key faculty and administrators from colleges and universities across the state for the purposes of enhancing personal and professional development, encouraging community involvement, and promoting institutional collaboration.  For more information about the Grapevine visit their website at http://www.virginiagrapevine.com/.
