From the organization's website: "As one of the oldest higher education associations, ACUI dates back to 1914 when it was founded in the Midwestern United States by six students and one faculty advisor who were interested in learning how other universities were managing college union organizations."

The pedestal mug, made for the group's annual conference in Philadelphia in 1967, has a horizontal oval with circle in the center, both in black outlines, and behind the circle four connected – and very much in the spirit of the mid-century atomic age – red stars.
