Arlington is a Member of Faculty Clubs International
The Association of Faculty Clubs International was founded in 1974 for the purpose of facilitating reciprocal relationships between faculty clubs. Member clubs of the association recognize and honor a reciprocal agreement, which allows individuals in a Member Club to visit any of the other clubs within the association. The reciprocal agreement encourages fellowship among the various universities and enhances the lines of communication between the associated clubs and their individual members. If you are an Arlington member, you too can take advantage of this great opportunity.
