Opening remarks by Dr. Priyam Patel, Visiting Assistant Professor, Mathematics
Current headlines and longitudinal data are undeniable: women face daily discrimination and on average are paid 80% of what men are paid, with racial/ethnic minorities suffering from an even larger pay gap. How do we change this? Why do scholars estimate it will be another 100 years before closing this gap? Why do more women enroll and graduate from colleges than men, yet hold far fewer leadership positions? How are transgendered and gender fluid persons still excluded from these analyses? Join this discussion with fellow students and scholars, all viewpoints are welcomed.
