History
The Faculty Women's Club was established in 1956 for the purpose of giving the wives and women members of Faculty an opportunity to become acquainted with one another, to assist the University in any appropriate manner and to raise funds for city charities. Their programs over the years have included running the University Ball, Afternoon Book Clubs, Thursday Hikers, Bridge Club, Bible studies, bazaars and auctions. The Club has also supplied support at convocation and official events and provided scholarship monies.
