Women's Work is Never Done: Employment, Family, and Activism - an IntroductionKristin KalsemUniversity of Cincinnati - College of Law Verna L. WilliamsUniversity of Cincinnati - College of Law September 15, 2006 University of Cincinnati Law Review, Vol. 73, p. 361, 2004 Symposium U of Cincinnati Public Law Research Paper No. 06-19 Abstract: This article frames the issues in the Supreme Court case, Nevada Department of Human Resources v. Hibbs, and introduces the articles making up the inaugural symposium of the Law and Women's Studies Program at the University of Cincinnati. Hibbs involved a husband who was trying to get leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) in order to take care of his severely injured wife. The case presents an opportunity to rethink issues of work and family, the legal subordination of women, and the law as an agent for social change, and it was therefore an ideal focus for the symposium.
