A Report on a Conference: Oregon Women in Educational Administration, First Annual Conference, June 21, 1978
(1978-06-21) Anonymous
"We gave a conference and over 200 people came!" That was the animated response of one person who helped plan the first annual conference of Oregon Women in Educational Administration (OWEA). The conference, held June 21 at Seaside, Oregon, preceded the annual meeting of the Confederation of Oregon School Administrators (COSA) and was the result of a year's planning by several women educators across the state. A woman's caucus, held at the 1977 COSA Conference, had identified a need for the support and encouragement of a state organization specifically devoted to the issues of women in public school administration. A steering committee, formed earlier in the year, laid the groundwork for OWEA -- brain-storming ideas, drawing up bylaws and planning the conference. The committee included Carol Clanfield, Ardis Christensen, Holly Endersby, Elaine Hopson, Myra Rose and Patricia Schmuck.
