Women’s Initiatives
March 20, 2024
11 AM – 1 PM
The 2024 Women’s Luncheon will highlight a panel of accomplished Auburn women who have been actively involved with Auburn University. They’ve not only felt Auburn’s influence in their lives, but they are also making a difference with their own contributions to the university. These women represent not just the women-led organizations on campus but the spirit of what it means to be an Auburn woman. Come join us as we hear from them and learn how every Auburn woman can make a difference at Auburn and in our communities.
