The Coalition of Women in German, often known as WiG, is a professional organization for women engaged in the field of German studies. The organization was started in 1974. It publishes a newsletter and a yearbook, and has held an annual conference since 1976. ==History==
The organization has its roots in developments within the German and American women's movements and in growth of women's studies as an area of academic inquiry in the 1970s, developed during informal meetings of feminist Germanists at the annual conventions of the MLA and AATG. The first organizational steps were taken by volunteers from the University of Wisconsin who organized and distributed the organization's first newsletter.〔See Clausen 1〕 Early concerns of the organization were feminist critiques of teaching materials (German textbooks), feminist pedagogy, and feminist critiques of major authors' works. Textbook critique expanded to include issues of racism, classism, and heterosexism/homophobia in textbooks. The organization has been anti-hierarchical and driven by volunteers since its inception. However, in 1999, the decision was made to have a president, vice-president and steering committee.〔See Blackwell & Clausen 3.〕 The group's name, "Women in German", is intended to be broadly inclusive. "Women" was preferred to "Feminists in German", in order to keep the organization open to all women, whether feminist or not. "German" was favored over "Germanistik", to ensure that the group remains open to the interests of Germanists not currently employed in academia and high school German teachers.〔See Clausen 2.〕
