Miss Representation, a documentary film by Jennifer Siebel Newsom

This documentary, co-sponsored by the department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education, explores how the media's often disparaging portrayals of women contribute to the under-representation of females in positions of power, creating another generation of women defined by beauty and sexuality, and not by their capacity as leaders.

The documentary will be shown Oct. 10, 7:00 p.m. in the Nebraska Union City Campus, room 200. A panel discussion will follow the film screening.
