Organize Other Activities To Address This Issue

There is much more that you can do to address the underrepresentation of women on science faculties.  The options are unlimited!  Here are a few ideas:

• Run seminars for students;
• Invite speakers to campus to discuss this topic;
• Create student organizations (like mentor programs) to provide support systems for female and minority students in the sciences;
• Organize students, faculty and alumni to visit your university president;
• Send letters to members of your school’s Board of Trustees;
• If you have experienced behavior that you think may rise to the level of discrimination, contact the National Women’s Law Center by email at action@nwlc.org for advice.
