Female Notables Attend Opening Of Women's Center

President Horner was on hand yesterday with about 100 other women to celebrate the opening of the Radcliffe-Harvard Women's Center in its new quarter on the first floor of Agassiz Theatre.

The center, which is funded by the Radcliffe Union of Students, has sponsored courses this year in feminist theory, medical self-help and self-defense, as well as consciousness-raising groups and informal counselling.
