Interested in Women's Issues? How about Science? The intersection of the two?
Despite the fact that more women enroll in universities today, the gender gap in the fields of math and science persists.
Recent data show that women make up only 9.7 percent of math professors and that they still earn about 8 percent less than male colleagues.
Come discuss this disparity and share your thoughts at this week's Women's Leadership Project (WLP) Tea with our guest, HEB Professor Tanya Smith. Smith has extensive experience as a researcher and professor and has made major contributions to the understanding of human evolution.
WHEN: Thursday, March 25th from 2:00-3:00 pm
WHERE: Lowell Private Dining Hall
WHAT: 1-hour informal discussion and Q&A with Prof Smith PLUS delicious tea and cookies!
We're excited to host our first science-oriented discussion on women and leadership and hope you will join the conversation. All students welcome.
Hope to see you this Thursday!
