Abstract
The records detail the administrative operation and other activities of the Faculty Women's Club beginning at Southern Colorado State College in 1950 through the dissolution of the club in 1994 at what by then had become the University of Southern Colorado.
Administrative/Biographical History
The Faculty Women's Club formed during the 1950-1951 academic year at Pueblo Junior College (PJC) and continued its activities for over forty years until the club's dissolution in March of 1994. Membership was open to female faculty and staff, as well as wives of male faculty and staff Club during its forty-four year existence. In that time, the club transcended several institutional name changes from PJC, to Southern Colorado State College (SCSC), and ultimately the University of Southern Colorado (USC). During the mid 1960's when Southern Colorado State College also began instruction on the citys new Belmont campus, the Faculty Women's Club became inclusive of members from both campuses. The club hosted numerous activities including a variety of social gatherings, educational workshops, arts and crafts gatherings, and scholarship fundraising activities for students. The most notable fundraising activity was the club's annual fashion show in which the club's members themselves served as the models for the yearly affair.
