THE
BRANDEIS NATIONAL COMMITTEE |
In 1948 when Brandeis University first opened its doors
its library was small and non-competitve with Ivy League
universities. A group of eight women undertook to remedy
this situation and formed the Brandeis University
National Womens Committee (BUNWC). Over the
years men have become an increasing part of the membership
of BUNWC local chapters. In recognition
of this fact in 2008 the organization's name has been
changed to simply the Brandeis National Committee
(BNC).
Since its inception BNC has
grown into a community of some 25,000 members in more than
fifty chapters across the country who value their
affiliation with, and support of, Brandeis University.
Located in Waltham, MA. BNC connects the
university to its members and their communities through
programs that reflect the ideals of social justice and
academic excellence.
As part of the BNC the Los
Angeles Chapter (BNCLA)
provides financial support for Brandeis
University and its libraries. Through its
connection with Brandeis, BNC and its
individual chapters bring educational and social benefits
to members while helping to sustain one of the world's
great research universities.

THE
BRANDEIS MEN'S GROUP |
The Los Angeles Brandeis Men's Group (LABMG) exists within
the BNCLA, and provides activities for its members,
including tours, trips, and Special Interest Groups (SIG)
while working to support the aims and ideals of the BNC. A
listing of the existing SIGs can be viewed by clicking the
"Interest Group" navigation link, above. Members may join
together to form other interest groups where sufficient
interest exists.
Overall management of LABMG activities is performed by a
Steering Committee which meets monthly. Officers are
elected by the general membership and serve for two years.
