General Information

We welcome new members! This is great group to meet new women and you only have to attend the meetings that interest you. We meet from September-May. Each month will feature a new podcast. We ask members to listen to the podcast selected prior to the meeting on your own time. Then sign on to Zoom for a lively discussion promptly at 1:00 PM on the third Monday of each month. Let us know if you have recommendations on a podcast for future meetings.

If you are interested in participating or want to be on our contact list, 1) add yourself to the contact group or 2) Contact Jane Harens or Linda Grant using the Member Directory. If not a Member, please contact us with any questions you may have.

Event Information

In May, women got together to talk about language. Thanks to Chris DiPietro for selecting the podcast and leading the meeting. The podcast was an NPR podcast titled "Arguing for the good in bad English." You can find that podcast at the link below.

This group takes the summer (June, July, August) off. We plan to be back in September to learn about new podcasts and have more great discussions.

We are keeping a list of podcasts we have listened to previously. The Chicago chapter is starting a podcast group in January 2025 and is adding their selections to our list. You can view the list at this link.

Please be thinking of interesting and/or informative podcasts to share with the group! Contact Jane Harens or Linda Grant with any questions.
