    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[“I Pledge to Sustain its Good Work and Guard Its Reputation”]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The Constitution printed in the Annual Announcements outlined the process of gaining membership into the Chicago Woman’s Club.  In 1885, prospective club members needed explicit endorsement from two club members, a majority vote of acceptance, and an annual payment of dues.  The process aimed to protect the good reputation of the club while also effectively limiting the group to white women of means.  Portraits of the first five presidents of the CWC depict proper well-to-do Victorian clubwomen.  When middle class African American Fannie Barrier Williams first attempted to gain membership in 1894, the local press followed the controversial story with great interest. ]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From the Club’s inception, Annual Announcements listed the officers, committees, and lecture program of the Chicago Woman’s Club.  Note that Prison Reform emerges as a topic of interest as early as 1877.  The Club’s well-decorated rooms at the Art Institute Building reflected the elegance and refinement of the upper class clubwomen.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Disorder vs. Civilization]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Sensational newspaper headlines like “Disgusting Rowdyism” and “A Murderous Mob” emphasize the volatility of the urban underclass in late nineteenth century Chicago.  At the same time, the press ran articles that touted morality and education as solutions to crime in the city. The literary program of the Chicago Woman’s Club reflected the era’s faith in “civilizing” efforts. ]]></dcterms:description>
