Midwest Sociologists for Women in Society (MSWS) is a feminist organization designed to support women sociologists in the Midwest. Founded in 1975 in the context of the second wave of the women’s movement, the original purpose was to reduce the isolation of women sociologists in the Midwest and to explore ways to create rewards and resources for writing, teaching, and community work undertaken by feminist sociologists.

MSWS has had visibility at the MSS Annual Meetings since 1977 when we began to co-sponsor sessions. Sessions have ranged from the presentation of formal papers to roundtables, panels, workshops, and herstories of feminist sociologists.

The MSWS has also worked to create safe and welcoming space for women at the Annual Meetings.
