Association for Women in Communication

Women find the Association for Women in Communication a great resource for developing professional relationships, and gaining knowledge about careers in communication. During chapter meetings, members engage in active discussions, plan work site tours, and hear presentations from women in a communication discipline. AWC also holds networking, interviewing and resume workshops throughout the school year. AWC’s mission is to “champion the advancement of women across all communication disciplines by recognizing excellence, promoting leadership and positioning its members at the forefront of the evolving communications era.” Group meetings take place the first Thursday of each month during the school year in CMU126 at 6:30 p.m. from September to June. E-mail Lindsay Walker (lew24@uw.edu) to become a member, and check out the national AWC web site, or the group's Facebook page to read announcements and messages.
