graduates from about 100 American
colleges and universities whose de-
grees entitle them to membership. Ad
vanced degrees granted by the lead
ing foreign universities also admit to
membership. The association was
founded in 1882 for the purpose of
uniting the alumnae of different insti-
tutions for practical educational work
for the collection and publication of
statistical and other information con-
corning education and for the main
tenance of higher standards of educa-
tion in general. Ii endeavors To full
fill these purposes through the ma
tional organization and through the
local branches. Until 1921 the organi-

of Collegiate Alumnae. AT the ma
tional convention in Washington in
1921 a union of the Association of
Collegiate Alumnae with the Southern
Association OF College Women was eff
