The young women and underrepresented students just want to accomplish their dreams, and they don't want to be held back by anything. When students get upset and down I just want them to come to our office and find someone they can talk to. We can coach them along the way or just help them open their eyes to possibilities. We also provide scholarships for women and for underrepresented students in science and engineering. That's a big joy to see the students being able to relax a little bit and concentrate on their studies. We always tell women students:"Look for someone that understands why you are here, it's very important to have a supporting partner that helps you succeed." We encourage men to join women's organizations. I think underrepresented students can relate to what the women are going through, although perhaps in a different way, and that allows them to be very supportive and participative with other students." |
