        distinctive service in any field of education;

   3.  To advance the professional interest and position of women in

        education;

   4.  To initiate, endorse, and support desirable legislation or other suitable

        endeavors in the interests of education and of women educators;

   5.  To endow scholarships to aid outstanding women educators in pursuing

        graduate study and to grant fellowships to non-member women

        educators; 

   6.  To stimulate the personal and professional growth of members and to

        encourage their participation in appropriate programs of action; and

   7.  To inform the members of current economic, social, and political
