Hello Everyone! First off, my name is Cami.

I am 19 years old and currently a sophomore at MSUM.

I am a biology major with an emphasis in ecology and

evolutionary biology. I am going to school to become a

Veterinarian Technician

I graduated from a class of about 65 students.

I lived and worked on a small dairy farm until I went to college.

I am the youngest of three kids (I have 2 older brothers)

I recently just became an aunt for the first time and so I am super excited.

I work in the Admissions Office on Campus

I love animals! I scrapbook in my

spare time. I love pickles. My favorite color is

metallic blue. I love the smell of

rain, fresh cut grass and basements. (weird I know)

I am always singing.

I enjoy playing volleyball.

I hate onions.

Cottage Cheese makes me sick.

I enjoy camping and being outside in nature.

Women were considered as property by both their father and husband

Young women were considered only temporary members of the family and someone who just decreased the money the family had.

Women’s main job is to be the household wife and do the chores so, they are taken out of school at a early age therefore many lack a good education compared to men.

Women were married by arranged marriage and could not file for divorce

Some places in China have laws that prohibit women from owning houses

China has a policy that only allows most families to have only one child increasing the rates of abortions and for women to become sterilized

Women can now choose to get divorced

Women can now own their own property

Women can now get a good education by choosing to do so

Women’s status in china has increased dramatically over the years.

Women can now make their own choices and do not feel as if they are “owned.”

Women are started to receive a good education and therefore are entering the workforce and the business world.

Although Women’s status in China has gotten a whole lot better, there is still work that needs to be done.
