The Faculty and Professional Women's Association begins the year with a Sept. 17 membership social for new and returning members of the university organization.
FPWA is dedicated to promoting the professional growth and development of women, addressing issues of concern to the female sector of the academic community through monthly programs and sponsoring one undergraduate and one graduate scholarship each year. Scholarships are awarded at the May meeting.
The association is open to all current and retired university-related personnel in executive, administrative, managerial, faculty, and professional non-faculty positions (EEOC occupation categories I, II and III).
This year's officers include Janie Cirlot-New, president; Maridith Geuder, immediate past president; Laura Walling, vice president for programs; Kay Fike Jones, vice president for membership; Mattie Sink, secretary; and Brenda Neubauer, treasurer.
Anyone interested in joining or re-joining the organization is encouraged to attend the 5:30- 7 p.m. event hosted by Sandra Sistrunk at 526 Chestnut Drive, Longmeadow Subdivision. In addition to food and fellowship, participants may contribute possible program topics.
For more information, telephone Cirlot-New at 325-1029, or e-mail her at jcirlotnew@tkmartin.msstate.edu.
