The University Women's Club of The Ohio State University began as the "Woman's Faculty Club of the Ohio State University" in 1895. Founded by Flavia Canfield, it included the wives of the faculty at the university. The club focused on expanding the social opportunities of students and giving them opportunities to get to know the faculty and their wives. It changed its name to the University Women's Club sometime before 1920. The club was involved in the suffrage movement and with Red Cross efforts on campus during the First World War. The group later expanded its membership to include the Greater Columbus community and expanded its mission to provide scholarships to women at Ohio State University.
