The ASME Auxiliary to celebrates 100 years at the Upcoming Annual Meeting
Get ready to join the celebration! The ASME Auxiliary will mark a major milestone at the upcoming ASME annual meeting in St. Louis in June 2023, celebrating 100 years of activity since its founding.
Back in 1906, the Ladies Committee organized activities for female attendees at ASME meetings. But it wasn't until 1923, under the leadership of Harriett Fowler, that the newly renamed Women's Auxiliary of ASME was officially established. Since then, the membership and activities of the Auxiliary have continued to grow, with the first student scholarship being offered in the same year.
Even during the tough times of the Great Depression, the Auxiliary rallied together to hold benefit events and raise money for a relief fund for engineering students. Their dedication and tireless efforts have resulted in the creation of scholarship funds for both undergraduate and graduate students. This academic year alone, 37 scholarships were awarded from 12 different funds.
Join us in St. Louis on Sunday, June 4, for ASME's Annual Meeting Opening Reception to celebrate this momentous occasion. Let's give a well-deserved salute to the ASME Auxiliary and their generous donors for their unwavering support and commitment to the development needs of mechanical engineering students. Don't miss out on this historic celebration.
