Support the National Conference for College Women Student Leaders - Learn how to send Student Leaders to Washington!
AAUW is co sponsoring the 41st NCCWSL conference June 2-4 at the University of Maryland College Park. The conference has grown to 500 attendees and is a great opportunity for AAUW to develop potential members. There is a need for scholarship assistance for some attendees. Click HERE to see how you can help.
Learn more about the 2011 conference HERE.
How many of us have children who are graduating from college this year? My daughter graduated in June from Cal State East Bay, and I gave her the gift of AAUW membership. If our children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews don't join, how can we expect everyone else to join?
I just filled out the Give a Grad a Gift Application on the National website www.aauw.org.
The AAUW CA Board of Directors has agreed to wave the California 2010-2011 state dues for these new members. If the new member decides to join a branch, she will only need to pay the branch dues.
Please give a gift to new grads.

Nine of the national candidates provided answers to a list of questions, which will allow you to learn more about those who would like to guide our organization.

Today AAUW released the most comprehensive analysis to date on trends by gender, race, ethnicity, and income in education. The report, Where The Girls Are: The Facts About Gender Equity In Education, presents a comprehensive look at girls' educational achievement during the past 35 years, paying special attention to the relationship between girls' and boys' progress. Analyses of results from national standardized tests, such as the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) and the SAT and ACT college entrance examinations, as well as other measures of educational achievement, provide an overall picture of trends in gender equity from elementary school to college and beyond.
