Mila Kunis
"With no further fanfare, the graduate board of the Hasty Pudding Institute has determined that, commencing with the 2019 Hasty Pudding Show, the Hasty Pudding welcomes women to audition and perform in the roles in the show, and be given equal opportunity to play those roles based on the quality of their individual talents", Weeks read from the letter. This year, the club has been the object of protest by female students who say it's time to start casting actual women. "The world is in a very different place".
Deming, Lazar, Shaheen, and Saracco said they are pleased that months and months of advocacy finally paid off. Lazar also thanked actress Mila Kunis-the 2018 Pudding Woman of the Year-for her support for the push to go co-ed.
Speaking with reporters after, Kunis noted that women are active in key behind-the-scenes roles at Hasty Pudding, including writing the shows, working on the technical crew and serving on the executive board, which is now led by a woman and includes several other female members.
Hasty Pudding Theatricals, founded in 1795, is the oldest collegiate theater group in the United States and said its longstanding tradition of casting men in women's roles is an artistic decision.
"They are constantly performing and doing what they love, and women I know who are just as talented don't have the same opportunity".
Looking back on the last three years, Deming said she thinks the Pudding's policy shift is long overdue.
In a news conference during Thursday's Woman of the Year festivities, Kunis said she "wouldn't be here" if the change had not been made.

"I wouldn't be here otherwise", she said. This is something this program always wanted to do.
Kunis unconvincingly downplayed her role in the social engineering of the 174-year-old club, saying she did not "stimulate" the social engineering, which was "something that was going to happen inevitably".
Following the parade, Kunis, 34, took part in a roast by the club's members and was presented with a pudding pot as the 68th recipient of the honor.
Kunis at one point inhaled helium from a balloon and attempted to hawk Jim Beam, the bourbon that she serves as a spokeswoman for, in a squeaky voice. "What is happening guys?"
Previous winners include Elizabeth Taylor, Lucille Ball and more recently, Anne Hathaway, Julianne Moore and Helen Mirren. In the past, the honor has gone to actresses like Meryl Streep and Octavia Spencer.
Paul Rudd will be fêted as Hasty Pudding's Man of the Year on February 2.
