Computer Science Seniors Megan Thurber and Rita Lee Participate in Computing Conference

Megan Thurber and Rita Lee, Computer Science Class of 2005, participated in the Grace Hopper Women in Computing Conference October 6-9, in Chicago. The students led a discussion on "The Value of Research Experiences to Undergraduate Students."  This year, 850 women computer scientists attended the conference from academia and industry. Both students received scholarship awards for housing from the Grace Hopper organization to help fund their participation. Additional funding from the School of Science enabled their trip. The conference was sponsored by the Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology and the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). More information on this conference and future events can be found at www.gracehopper.org.
