Monthly Meetings

AAUW Carlisle takes great care to offer a wide variety of provocative, interesting, and mission-based programming at our monthly Branch meetings, held the fourth Tuesday of most months.  Most branch meetings are held on the Dickinson College campus — in the student union — Holland Union Building (HUB) at the corner of Louther and North College.  Most often, we meet, in the side rooms along the east side (North College side) of the cafeteria.  For meal events, we are in the Social Rooms of the HUB or in Stern Hall. Parking is available in the lot near Anita Tuvin Schlecter Auditorium.

Watch for information in the newsletter or a special email if the meeting location needs to be changed.  Guests are always welcome.
