Karlyn Crowley, associate professor of English, will speak as a part of the St. Norbert College Women's Enrichment series on Friday, February 17, at noon in the Hendrickson Dining Room of the F.K. Bemis International Center on the college campus. Crowley will speak on "Feminism's New Age: Women and the Rise of New Age Culture from Aliens to Oprah."

Crowley's studies focus on gender, religion and American literature and culture. In addition to her teaching, she is the director of women and gender studies at St. Norbert College, and a published author.

Crowley received her Bachelor's degree from the Earlham College, and her Master's and Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. Her other work investigates natural parenting culture and explores the debates around questions of attachment parenting, breastfeeding, and co-sleeping.

The Women's Enrichment Series is a series of lunch presentations featuring St. Norbert College faculty and staff speakers on topics of interest. The cost for individual sessions, which includes lunch, is $20. With limited space for the events, early reservations are encouraged.
