Study/Interest Groups            

Study and interest groups are a great way to get involved with AAUW.
Non-members may attend a maximum of three group meetings prior to joining AAUW.  See "Join AAUW" for branch membership information.

For more information regarding a group, call or email 
Study Group VP Linda Stern at 503-232-5637 or lindamstern@comcast.net


When you see the words (at capacity) by a group, do not be discouraged. We can start another group! Some are limited by space or by the optimal number for a good discussion where everyone can participate. If you have an idea for a group that you think might appeal to other members, speak up! Contact Linda and she will get the ball rolling.
