Membership brochures and information about AAUW’s various missions, such as the Legal Advocacy Fund, were provided for anyone interested. Issues of the AAUW magazine, the Outlook, were available for viewing along with brochures on the extensive national AAUW Fellowships and Grants. A list of the Manhattan Branch monthly programs and copies of our local K-State scholarship application were provided. The Manhattan Branch KSU Scholarship is now coordinated by the Greater Manhattan Community Foundation, ensuring permanent scholarship support for female, non-traditional students working toward a degree from Kansas State University.
