<b>When:</b> Monday, September 29th 4:30-6pm<br>
<b>Where:</b> Bush Room (10-105)<br>
<br>
This fall the MIT Women's League will once again host its annual reception to welcome new women in the MIT community. Our wish is to extend our invitation to all women in faculty, administrative, academic, research, and support staff positions who have come
to MIT since October 2013, as well as to the wives or significant others of new faculty, administrative, academic, research, and support staff members who have come to MIT since that time.<br>
<br>
On this occasion, these newcomers are introduced to helpful MIT offices and services as well as to the Women's League, to ease their transitions into our community, helping to make them smooth and informative. As administrative officers you have the most current
information about new arrivals in your workplace. Your assistance in identifying these newly arrived women in the past has contributed enormously to the success of this outreach.</div>
<div><br>
Please forward the names and addresses (home addresses if possible) and MIT affiliation (spouse, employee, etc.) of the women new to your department to the League office via email to <a href="mailto:esdeb@mit.edu" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(17, 85, 204);">esdeb@mit.edu</a> or
via fax to 253-5433. Also, please tell us if there are no new women in your area this year, as that information is helpful too.<br>
<br>
To keep to our schedule, we will need to receive your list of new women by September 2nd. Please contact Sis de Bordenave in the League office at 253-3656 if you have any questions.</div>

<br>
The Christine Mirzayan Science & Technology Policy Graduate Fellowship Program is designed to engage early career individuals in the analytical processes that inform U.S. science and technology policy. Fellows obtain the essential skills and knowledge needed
to work in science and technology policy at the federal, state, or local levels. Fellows spend 12 weeks at the National Academies in Washington, DC learning about science and technology policy and the role that scientists and engineers play in advising the
nation. Each year, applicants from around the world become part of a National Academies committee, board, or unit. Each fellow is assigned to a senior staff member who acts as his or her mentor. The mentor provides guidance and ensures that the fellow's time
is focused on substantive projects and activities within the fellow's assigned unit. An immersive experience, the program is designed to broaden fellows'appreciation of employment opportunities outside academia and leave them with both a firm grasp of the
important and dynamic role of science and technology in decision-making and a better understanding of the role that they can play in strengthening the science and technology enterprise for the betterment of mankind.<br>
