MOORHEAD
and FARGO Best of the Year
The
Moorhead and Fargo, N.D., branches of AAUW collaborate with seven local
colleges, business, and technical schools to present “College: It Can Work for
You.” The event targets women who are considering beginning or continuing work
toward a degree. The age range of the participants is from 30 to 50 years. It is
presented as a three-hour workshop, usually in the evening. As the participants
gather they are served a light meal and women who have successfully continued
their education speak to the group. At breakout sessions following the
presentation representatives from the colleges discuss financial planning,
career development, support services, and community resources. The planning
committee includes representatives from Moorhead and Fargo branches and the
participating schools. The schools also provide education and career planning
literature, door prizes, and food for the meal.
