American Association of University Women celebrates 130 years
The American Association of University Women is celebrating their 130th anniversary.
They will hold a brunch buffet meeting from 10 a.m. to noon Nov. 5 at Upland Hills Country Club, 1231 E. 16th St.
The organization was founded in 1881 with the goal to encourage women to continue their college education. The opinion at the time was that higher education was too strenuous for ladies and would impair their health, according to an Association news release.
Lisa Kohlmeier, a 2011-12 American Fellowship Recipient and graduate student at Claremont Graduate University will highlight the Association's history.
The public is invited to attend.
To make reservations call Sandy at 909-399-9029.
