ADVOCATING FOR EDUCATION, LEADERSHIP & EQUITY FOR WOMEN & GIRLS

AAUW’s Nationwide women’s advocacy network opens doors for women and girls and influences public debate on critical social issues such as education, civil rights, and workplace equity.

AAUW publishes groundbreaking research on women and girls, is one of the world’s largest resources of funding exclusively for graduate women, and fights sex discrimination in all levels of education.

The State College branch of AAUW was founded in 1916 and has approximately 150 members who continually seek ways to work toward improving the lives of all women. Our State College branch has a long history of leadership and community service. 

Co-President Elects Liz Kopco and Grace Hampton are an important part of our leadership team.

Liz: I’m beyond ecstatic to join AAUW State College leadership and to support the programs and volunteers that make such a big impact in this community. 

Grace: I am in full support of AAUW’s commitment to advancing equity for women and girls, empowering them to reach their full potential.  We want to ensure that everyone gets the same opportunity to learn, earn, and lead.
