Hyannis. Saturday's conference, “It’s All About
the Money,” featured Annie Houle,

as the keynote speaker. Patricia Ho, AAUW Association Board and New England
Regional Director brought us up to date on what is happening on the
Association level. The morning session gave us an overview of the Educational Foundation’s pay gap research
and current wage equity projects.
Afternoon sessions touched on mom’s economic security, intellectual
property rights and identity theft. We
ended the day with the LAF banquet featuring Michael Burch, an LAF litigant, a coach who
lost his job defending women’s right to participate in sports. He recently won his case.
On Sunday, in addition to being treated to guest speaker, author Kate Whouley, we held our annual meeting during which the election and installation of new officers took place and awards were given to branches and outstanding members.
