Denholtz will also be participating in a special performance on March 20 with her music fraternity, Sigma Alpha Iota, featuring songs composed solely by women.
She said every day is an opportunity to recognize the achievements of women.
Throughout her college career, Denholtz has taken every class and joined every club she could to feed her interest.
"I've actually taken all of the required women's studies classes, more than the minimum," she said, joking that there are none left to take.
Denholtz has also worked as a women's studies teaching assistant for the past two years and said she enjoys seeing her students flourish in the program. "It's been really great to help out so many people," she said. "I love seeing my old students getting more involved."
The women's studies department will be sponsoring various speakers throughout the month in honor of Women's History Month, said Emma Ford, a department representative.
Swarthmore College psychology professor Jeanne Marecek will speak on March 17 about gender in South Asia as part of the feminist scholar series, and women's studies director Lorriane Dowler will speak March 18 in Foster Auditorium.
The Robeson Gallery will also participate in the month's celebrations, displaying the works of Chinese artist Hung Liu beginning on March 22.
Lui's paintings are derived from historical photographs and reflect women's issues, HUB-Robeson Galleries' publicist Lauren Chyle said.
"It will feature stuff she would never be able to do in China," Chyle said.
She added that one of Liu's paintings depicts the Lotus foot, an ancient ritual in which Chinese women would bind their feet to create the look of small, feminine feet.
Chyle also said the gallery will host a panel discussion on March 16 to mark the closing of the Calculations for the Perfect Woman, an exhibit that features art pertaining to body image and eating disorders.
