Abstract
The William A. Kern Endowment in Communications was established by the Rochester Telephone Company in honor of Kern, a former company president who served as a trustee for the Rochester Institute of Technology from 1959–1964. The endowment funds the William A. Kern Professorship in Communications in the Department of Communication and exists to sponsor research into contemporary communication issues. Through the endowment, Kern Professor Diane Hope has organized two annual conferences in Visual Communication and, in conjunction with her role as general editor of Women's Studies Quarterly, held three annual conferences exploring gender and communication. Tonn's keynote address was for the third and final conference, which had the theme “Feminist Discourse: Theories, Practices. Challenges.” The address that appears below has been altered slightly for publication purposes.
