Pennsylvania State AAUW - American Association of University Women

The EdEqChange is a monthly memo prepared by Association to facilitate discussion and collaboration as well as communicate the specific changes being undertaken. It is called EdEqChange in reference to the three founding principles – Lifelong Education, Equity, and Positive Societal Change. It is designed as an open dialog in which all parties (Board, membership, staff, and even future members) are welcome. The EdEqChange began in Fall 2004 and offers readers updates on a variety of AAUW activities including Association, the Educational Foundation, Legal Advocacy Fund, Leadership and Training Institute, the Strategic Process, and so on. An archive of all previous issues is available at:

AAUW Prayer

Our Father, We, to whom has been granted the high privilege of learning Thy great truths in the universities of this land, ask that we may ever be

A ware of the great responsibility of women in maintaining the pattern of family and community life.
A live to the needs and problems of human living.
U niversal in our thinking.
W ise in our own actions. Amen.
(Found in the 1950 program from the Pennsylvania Division Annual Spring Meeting)
