Equality aim of new director
A woman who wants to become a construction worker or learn to drive a 12-foot rig should not feel overwhelmed about entering a traditionally male-dominated field, according to Barbara Ballard, newly appointed coordinator of KU's Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center.
By KATHY BRUSSELL Staff Reporter
Women are able to enter any field they choose, providing they relearn the skills they think about themselves and potential careers. Ballard said yesterday.
FOR MANY YEARS, men and women have been hesitant about entering a career dominated by either sex, she said. Peer pressure and fear of isolation have a great deal to do with their choice of many students, she said.
"Think back to your high school days," she said. "How many female math or science teachers did you have? Science and math are two areas that many people, not just women, shy away from." "Some of the careers like medicine. People are afraid that kind of occupation would be too hard for them."
If women can increase their exposure to previously forbidden careers, such as medicine or construction work, and learn to reject notions about the kinds of clothes they want" for women, they can do anything they want with their lives. Ballard said.
Ballard came to KU after working at Kansas State University as assistant to Berry.
She replaced Barbara Bloom, who
AS HEAD OF THE Resource Center here, Ballard will handle all aspects of the center's programs and services. Ballard said she hoped to increase the Center's visibility by working with other campus organizations and establishing contact with student living groups.
had been coordinator of the Resource Center since August 1978. Bloom returned to Temple University in Indiana this fall to complete her doctorate.
Women have always been equal to men, they just haven't been recognized as such, she said. Many women have pursued traditionally female careers because they didn't see any other feasible options, she said.
A woman's goal should be to find self-
sufficiency in whatever career she
chooses.
And, like men, women must accept the responsibilities that come with a job and earn the right to be treated equally with the best in the field, she said.
"I feel that I will fight from beginning to end for equality, because it is not something that is given to me, it is something I have always had," Ballard said. "But if I don't go after my women, I wouldn't do it. I don't want or need it. That is what women have been doing for so many years."
BESIDES DEALING with women and their career choices, the Resource Center helps all students recognize the importance of growth and achievement, Ballardsiad.
She said she liked to work with a "total person" concept: dealing with the personal, social and academic concerns of a student. The Center is
designed to deal with personal frustrations and fears before they explode into a serious problem for the student, she said.
To be successful, a person needs to know where his competence lies, she said.
"If you view yourself as great and feel as if you can take on the world, you can take it on," she said. "But if you are hesitant and really unsure about what you can do, you hurt your own chances to succeed in a chosen career."
The Resource Center is planning several workshops for the fall semester that will deal with self-improvement and with encouraging students to find out more about themselves and their interests, Ballard said.
THE WORKSHOPS will address topics such as self-identity for both men and women, single parenting, men's views on female equality and asser-
A "Helping Yourself" series is being designed to bring together students with common career goals, because students can often benefit from exchanging ideas and sharing fears with other students, when the same type of job, Ballard said.
The Resource Center is planning a "Women at Work" luncheon series tentatively scheduled to begin Oct. 1, she said.
The series will run for eight weeks,
highlighting a speaker from
different libraries.
"The speakers will represent both traditional and non-traditional areas." Ballard said. "They'll talk not only about their jobs, but about the nuts and bolts of how they lived where they are, what they like about their careers, what they dislike."
The Resource Center is open to all students and can benefit men as much as women, Ballard said.
