The Women’s Council newsletter is distributed the first week of the month during the school year. A second email featuring event updates is typically sent mid-month. If you have events that are pertinent to Women’s Council members that you would like us to share in our newsletter or email, please contact womenscouncil@unlv.edu in advance of our distribution schedule.
