[Editors] Why is MIT the best?!

[Catherine Avril]

Janet,

Re: #1 - we have some stats on the School of Engineering web site 
that might help. http://web.mit.edu/engineering/about/statistics.html

Re: #2 - Consider the Women's Technology Program (in EECS). http://wtp.mit.edu/
  http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/tt/2002/jul17/eecs.html  You may also 
want to contact Irene Miller <imm at mit.edu> in the SoE's Office of 
Faculty Diversity Searches for more info re: women faculty.

Feel free to call me if you need additional info.

Best,
-- Catherine

>>environment for women faculty."
