Dear Cynthia,
Thank you for allowing us to participate in the Pathways
'95 program. Your program allows young women to "see themselves"
as scientists and engineers. This is particularly important for our
school since we are only in the 6th year of coeducation. Programs
such as yours help strengthen the resolve of young women in our school
who wish to pursue studies in science but are often outnumbered by
the young men in their classes. Seeing, listening, and talking to
women in the fields of science and engineering helps make our students
more aware of the possible careers and opportunities available to
them. Our students enjoyed the day, and I certainly plan to bring
another group next year!
Enclosed are as set of evaluations. Sorry these are so
late. I hope they can be of some use to you!
Once again, thanks for including us. See you next year!
Sincerely,
Paul J. Karasch
Science Department Head
