Campus Action Project Models
The following Campus Action Projects are outstanding examples of how past campuses used the grant money from AAUW to promote equity for women on their campus. They demonstrate the range of ideas for projects and illustrate ways to carry them out, from creating poster advertisements to implementation. These projects all focus on women's economic security in some way, particularly ending the pay gap.
- Multimedia Projects
- Documentaries, podcasts, and an interactive website are three examples of past projects that involved multimedia.
- Projects Focused on Girls
- Many CAP teams held conferences, workshops, and fairs to expose girls in their community to college in general, STEM fields, nontraditional careers, pay negotiation, and financial planning.
- Events for Nontraditional Students and Nontraditional Career Fields
- A couple of teams helped nontraditional students or students who wanted to enter field that are traditionally male-dominated through holding career fairs and other events.
- Services
- Some teams used their grant money to start a service for women on their campus.
- Artistic/Creative Endeavors
- A few projects focused on creative or artistic endeavors, like art contests.
- Materials
- Several projects had outstanding brochures or advertising materials for their program or event.
