Mar 3: 7pm - Iron Jawed Angels film with speaker
Linda Lumsden
SBS Annex Conference
Room
In honor of the
anniversary of the D.C. suffrage parade riot, we will watch
Iron Jawed Angels and have a discussion following
with Linda Lumsden, author of a book on the D.C. suffrage
parade riot and picket line. Iron Jawed Angels recounts for
a contemporary audience a key chapter in U.S.
history: in this case, the struggle of suffragists who
fought for the passage of the 19th Amendment. Focusing on
the two defiant women, Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and Lucy
Burns (Frances O'Connor), the film shows how these activists
broke from the mainstream women's-rights movement and
created a more radical wing, daring to push the boundaries
of political protest to secure women's voting rights in
1920. Breathing life into the relationships between Paul,
Burns and others, the movie makes the women feel like
complete characters instead of one-dimensional figures from
a distant past. |

The Loft Cinema - 3233 E. Speedway

An Evening to Celebrate Women's History Month with Films
By, For, and About Women Benefiting WOSAC, the Women's
Studies Department, and the Breast Cancer Fund.
What is LUNAFEST? - LUNAFEST is a national film
festival that showcases a diverse selection of short films
by, for and about women. The films range from documentaries
to animated shorts to dance narratives and cover topics such
as social and cultural diversity, the joys and challenges of
mother-child relationships, and the bending (and sometimes
breaking) of traditional gender roles. LUNAFEST was created
to raise awareness about women's issues, highlight women
filmmakers, bring women together in their communities and
raise money for the Breast Cancer Fund (
http://www.breastcancerfund.org). It is an event created
by LUNA(r), the Whole Nutrition Bar for Women(r). For more
information about LUNAFEST:
www.lunabar.com/lunafest Who benefits from LUNAFEST?
- The audience isn't the only group who benefits from this
thought-provoking and entertaining film festival! 25% of the
proceeds from the festival go to the Breast Cancer Fund, a
non-profit organization that works to identify and advocate
for the elimination of environmental and other preventable
causes of the disease. The remaining 75% raised is donated
to WOSAC to support the Women's Studies Department. How much are
tickets to LUNAFEST? - Tickets are $5/student and
$10/general community member. Ticket price includes not
only free LUNA bars and the viewing of nationally selected
films, but also an exclusive screening of the winning film
from our own local contest! For more information,

Mar 5: 9:30-11am - A Panel Discussion on Distressed
Students
Student Union Kiva Room
The aftermath of violence on a university campus leaves any
community with unanswered questions about safety, university
protocols and procedures. Often times in looking back on
these very tragic incidents, we often wonder what are the
warning signs? What is my responsibility in helping someone
in distress? What are the resources available on this campus
to help students showing signs of distress? The Dean of
Students Office invites the campus community to attend an
open discussion on addressing the needs of distressed
students. Acknowledging the complexities and sensitive
issues associated with working with distressed students, we
have invited a panel of experts representing the Dean of
Students office, Counseling and Psychological Services, Life
and Work Connections, University Police, and the University
Attorney‘s office. Please plan to attend.
For more information about the panel, please contact Dr.
Veda Kowalski, Associate Dean of Students at 621-7059.

and understand concepts of heterosexism and homophobia
as well as some understanding about gender identity &
expression. Participants who complete this session WILL
receive a SafeZONE placard. To register for one of

Mar 12: 7pm - On the Edge film with Steev Hise
YWCA (525 North Bonita
Avenue)
On The Edge is a documentary
covering the brutal murders of hundreds of poor young women
in the border town of Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, murders
that have been repeatedly ignored and unresolved by police
and governments since 1993, despite the continued and
persistent efforts of family members and activists to obtain
justice for the victims. Rather than provide an easy,
murder-mystery style solution to the crimes, the film sets
out to explain the social, cultural, and economic factors
that have created this situation where the killings can
continue, and continue to go unpunished. In addition to
explaining the circumstances, On The Edge situates
the Juarez killings in the context of wider political and
economic trends, showing the audience that this is not just
an isolated phenomenon in one far-off city, but a glimpse at
a nightmarish future for much of the world, unless something
is done to prevent it. A discussion with the filmmaker and
local feminist activists will follow. Refreshments and
snacks will be provided.

Arizona’s annual “On Our Own Time” art exhibit
featuring the works of incredibly talented UA staff and

Gallery setting and evaluated by a juried team. If you
aren’t the artistic type but happen to know your cubicle
mate is either a maestro with the paintbrush or can comb a
junkyard and come up with enough material to make an army of
6’ “found art” sculptures in a weekend, please encourage
them to participate. To get an idea of previous submissions
to On Our Own Time, pieces from last year’s
show can be found online.
Check them out.
You’ll find oil and acrylic paintings, inkjet and digital
photographs, old fenders and steel rendered into sculpture,
mixed media, sandstone, pencil, charcoal/newsprint and wood
intarsia, just to name a few. More details on how to
enter will be forthcoming soon. For now, be sure to mark the

It only takes a minute and is so worthwhile.
If you go to the
web site
http://www.letssaythanks.com/ you can pick out a thank you card
and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is
currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it
will go to some member of the armed services. It is FREE and it
only takes a second. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers
received a bunch of these? I sent mine, now you send one too! |

Curb Auto
Theft with the Watch Your Car Program:
It's Quick, Easy and FREE!
The Watch Your Car
decal program is a free, voluntary program that
vehicle owners enroll their vehicles with the
Arizona Automobile Theft Authority. The vehicle is
then entered into the Motor Vehicle Department (MVD)
database and participants receive decals for their
front and rear windows. By displaying the decals,
vehicle owners convey to law enforcement officials
that their vehicle is not usually in use between the
hours of 1:00 AM and 5:00 AM, when the majority of
auto thefts occur. In addition, by enrolling in the
Watch Your Car Program, vehicle owners also
authorize law enforcement officials to stop their
vehicle at any time during the day or night within
one mile of the border, if there is a suspicion that
the vehicle is being illegally operated.
If a police officer
witnesses the vehicle in operation between these
hours, they have the right to stop the vehicle and
verify it is being legally operated by the rightful
owner.
To
register for the program online go to:
