The vision of the
Iowa State University Women's Club
is to create unity through friendship and promote a sense of belonging, with
each other and within the community, as we grow and have an impact on our
society. |
Iowa State University Women's Club is a social and service
organization for women associated with Iowa State University
(ISU) at Ames, Iowa. The club was founded in 1897 by the wives
of faculty members and female faculty who wanted to have an organization
to promote the social interaction of faculty and help integrate
new faculty families into the Iowa State University and Ames
communities. The Club continues to welcome and involve women
of various interests, ages, and experiences and to provide opportunities
for individual growth and enrichment. Its nearly 330 members
include women who are or who are the wife or relative of faculty,
staff, graduate students, or social house directors at Iowa State
University or who have an Iowa State University connection and/or
interest in the Club.
Over the years club members have grown and adapted to the
changing roles of women. The club has a long tradition of community
service to ISU and Ames and a proud heritage of supporting the
scholarly development of women students at ISU through its annual
scholarship award program.
Monthly programs and a wide variety
of
interest groups provide opportunities
for members to expand their intellectual and social horizons.
Iowa State University Women's Club is eagerly seeking new
members. Please read through our web site to learn more about
