| HISTORICAL NOTE |
Augustana Women was a group of women faculty and administrators, wives of past and present faculty and administrators, and honorary members. It was originally known as the Augustana Dames, formed in 1946, and changed their name in 1984. The club's purpose was to encourage fellowship among its members. The group met once or twice a year for luncheons.
Some of the topics of discussion and visiting speakers include: "History of Basket Weaving" by Vickie Morrow, a fashion show by the Quad-Cities Smockers, a demonstration of new Hewlett-Packard computers, "An Augie Historian's Experiences in China During Tien-an-men" by Dr. Van J. Symons, and "How Firm a Foundation" by Dr. Richard Anderson. |
