Faculty Wives and Women's Association (1948-1993)

The Faculty Wives and Women's Association was organized in January 26, 1948. Membership was derived from several categories: women faculty members and wives of male faculty with the rank of instructor or higher; women and wives of men who were heads of administrative departments; wives of special lecturers; housemothers; and those who were retired and living in the community. Entertainment, hobbies and interacting with friends were the main purposes of the group. There were several smaller interest groups within the larger organization, in addition to a Newcomer's Club, geared especially for new members. The organization was started and dissolved several times throughout its history, due either to an increase or decrease in participation and number of members. In 1990, the name of the club was officially changed to Association of Campus Women; in October 1993, the club was formally closed due to lack of member involvement.
