      1. University Woman's Club

        The University Woman’s Club (UWC), established in 1949 for UNC faculty wives and the few female faculty members, regularly held luncheons at the Carolina Inn. Handmade programs, such as the one above, outlined the menu and scheduled events for the gathering. While the UWC was intended to provide a sense of community for women in the Carolina community, strict membership requirements presented a barrier to inclusivity and diversity.

        For more information, see the UWC’s own history Opens in New Window, or its papers Opens in New Window held at UNC’s Wilson Library.
