American Association of University Women

AAUW Logo

AAUW advances gender equity for women and girls through research, education, and advocacy. AAUW, founded in 1881, is open to all graduates who hold an associate or higher degree from a regionally accredited college or university.

In principle and in practice, AAUW values and seeks a diverse membership. There shall be no barriers to full participation in this organization on the basis of gender, race, creed, age, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or class.

By joining AAUW, you belong to a community that breaks through educational and economic barriers so that all women have a fair chance. Visit us at marquette-mi.aauw.net.

Our Marquette branch hosts monthly meetings to highlight and discuss the issues that affect women in our community. We also raise funds through donations and our Annual Used Book Sale to provide scholarships to women attending NMU.
