I am flying to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania this morning to present
on SEED at the NCWIT
Leadership Team and Alliance Meetings held at Carnegie Mellon University.
The mission of NCWIT – National Center for Women & Information
Technology is to ensure that women are fully represented in the
influential world of information technology and computing. They
are holding a panel tomorrow morning with representatives
from telementoring (represented by
Mentornet), academic
faculty mentoring (represented by Georgia Tech), and industry
mentoring (represented by SEED). I will be back late on
18 November.
While I am gone, the very able Tanya Jankot will be responding
to SEED questions. All materials from the 63 applicants from
Dublin, Prague, Hamburg, and Grenoble are due on Friday,
18 November. A quick scan of the submissions as of this morning
shows about ten people have already sent in everything.
The 25 selected SEED participants will be announced on 22 November.
