Biographical / Historical
The Student Girls' League, founded in 1911, was a social group for female students. It helped freshman students get used to the school and published calendars (as seen in this collection) and a "Handbook of Northern," a senior pamphlet. By 1932, every female student was required to be a member and its goal was "to help every woman enjoy her life at Northern," and in the 1940s it helped to establish the student council, which evenutally became ASNMU (Associated Students of Northern Michigan University). In 1957, it changed its name to the Associated Women Students. In 1969, with the creation of ASNMU, it was disbanded.
