Only 20% of bachelor degree in STEM are held by women. Why aren't women entering the science fields? Some say it's because there aren't enough role models for girls. The people at OnlineUniversities.com don't believe that. They have posted a list of 25 fabulous women involved in STEM fields.
The list includes astronauts, professors, a fighter pilot, a college president, physicists, electronic game creators, a co-founder of Flickr, a co-founder of iRobot, astronomers, etc. Some of the women were familiar to me, but most were not I'm sad to say. Check out the list and see who you know. But more importantly, pass it on to girls and young women you know who might be interested in the sciences. You never know who you might inspire.
