<i class="">On behalf of the 2017 Path of Professorship (POP)
planning team, I write to ask for your assistance in getting
the word out to graduate and postdoctoral women in your
department/program about our annual POP workshop. As you may
know, this 1.5 day workshop provides women who are considering
academic careers in science, technology, engineering and math
with insights, tools, strategies and insider information that
will help them to be successful in their job search and on the
tenure track. <o:p class=""></o:p></i></div>

diverse institutions, and they will have an opportunity to
