The Queen’s Women’s Association, originally established as the Faculty Women’s Club in 1939, was located in a comfortably furnished brick house at 144 Albert Street. We have moved to a new location at 187A King Street West. Our home is a meeting and networking place for women who hold or whose spouse/partner holds a position at Queen’s University, as well as for those who have held or whose spouse/partner has held a position at Queen’s in the past.
The QWA provides a means of social interaction for its members, works cooperatively with Queen’s University to foster a collegial atmosphere on the campus, and supports women students at Queen’s University by funding bursaries and awards.
The Association’s objectives are:
-
To strengthen bonds between members of the QWA and Queen’s University.
-
To enhance collegial life at Queen’s University by providing congenial surroundings in which members can participate in social, intellectual and cultural activities.
-
To help facilitate projects relating to Queen’s University which are of interest to QWA members.
