Hidden Women in STEM: Breaking the Curse of Invisibility
Did you know many extraordinary women in STEM still feel invisible in their fields? In collaboration with the Student Equity Office, Umoja and the HSI-STEM EMC2 grant, MPC welcomes Alexis Scott-Bosler to the Monterey Campus to share her valuable lessons on breaking the invisibility curse. She will discuss her struggles in an area where there are few representations for people like herself, and how she moved beyond the challenges of invisibility to succeed. Alexis is known as a “Triple E” which is to say she is an educator, entrepreneur, and engineer. She holds an MS in Math and has been teaching math for over 20 years. This presentation is an extension of her 2017 TEDx Talk.
MPC students are encouraged to RSVP for this event in order to plan appropriately for space.
