Today it was pirate day in the Wisdom office! Not really, but hopefully we will be implementing our theme Fridays soon.
Lots of progress was made this week on the radio program. Now that I have bionic Excel skills, I have been busting out spreadsheets left and right. Purple ones! Green ones! Ones with penguins in the background!
On a more serious note, this week I have been reading really interesting material about women of color in science fields, since part of the goal of the radio program will be to encourage Native Americans to pursue science and math-related careers. Did you know that women of color are severely underrepresented in all science fields, as well as in research-based universities? Here is a link to an article if you would like to learn more: http://www.terc.edu/work/1513.html
Aye aye!
