Women in History Clara Barton
------------------------------
*Clara Barton *(1821 – 1912) was a pioneering nurse who founded the *American
Red Cross*. She was a hospital nurse in the American Civil War, a teacher,
and patent clerk. Nursing education was not very formalized at that time
and Clara did not attend nursing school, so she provided self-taught
nursing care. She is noteworthy for doing humanitarian work at a time when
few women worked outside the home. Her legacy is reflected in the services
provided daily by the employees and volunteers of the American Red Cross.
GWAMIT Events

NE GWiSE is having its first annual Spring to Action event! This year, it
will be a forum addressing Sexual Harassment in Higher Education, hosted by
Tufts University School of Medicine. The goals will be to discuss and
understand the issue of sexual harassment in STEM, learn the current
policies addressing this issue at our local graduate schools, construct a
cohesive strategy proposal for each school, and develop a plan of action
moving forward to collectively advocate for policy change.
Through concrete and collective action, we will improve the culture
surrounding sexual harassment in higher education. We welcome all graduate
women and men in STEM fields from our partner schools who are interested in
addressing this issue to attend! Tentative schedule available at RSVP link.
We're also still recruiting planning committee members so if you're
