Participant comments

"I really enjoyed the conference and learned quite a bit!! I will definitely recommend it to others."

"A special thanks for the exposure to all of the information that will surely enhance my professorate experience. I would not have gotten many of the insights given through the normal course of entering academia."

"It was a wonderful experience to meet so many women in the same situation I am, starting a career in a scientific field. The topics included in the workshop and the lessons learned from the speakers are invaluable."

"Great to know I CAN negotiate. As a woman I never knew it was a common practice. I took away some good tips and strategies about negotiating to help me negotiate a faculty position."

·"Don't stop offering this workshop! This program should be available at all universities as a part of the graduate curriculum."

"Awesome! I was particularly interested in How Women Do It. It was very helpful to see the different paths women have taken. It was good to hear the perspectives of both successes and failures."

" Before I was clueless about the tenure process, but now I feel much more informed. It was a a great look at getting tenure from the administrative and the faculty perspective. I now understand the importance of having a mentor."

"The workshop was very worthwhile. I feel armed to be more likely to succeed in my career."
