*Career Paths, Life Paths
When:* Wednesday, April 10, 12-1pm, lunch reception at 11:30am.
*Where:* 32-D463 (Star conference room)
*Panelists:* Professor Muriel Medard (MIT), Dean Christine Ortiz (MIT),
Professor Evimaria Terzi (BU), Professor Katrin Wehrheim (MIT)

Four Cambridge-area professors who are in different stages in their careers
and lives will provide insights into their life and career choices and
share their stories with the audience. We hope to represent a diversity of
professors who can describe issues such as: racial, ethnic, and
socioeconomic background; choosing to have children or not; co-parenting as
dual-career couples; being single and dating as a professor; and being an
openly queer faculty member. Refreshments and light lunch available from
11:30am.

*Why is a Network for Women Scientists Valuable to You?
When:* Wednesday, April 10, 5-6pm, reception to follow.
*Where:* 32-144

Julia and Christina will discuss why you should be in a network for women
in science and the value of community for female scientists. They will also
reveal how they came to found their organization, The Scientista
Foundation. Catered reception from 6:00-6:30pm.

Hope to see you there,

The GWAMIT Executive Board and Empowerment Conference Planning Committee
