Editor's Notes
- The Clare Boothe Luce Program is the largest private source of funding for women in the Sciences and Engineering in the United States. Grants are made to colleges and universities throughout the United States. Since the inception of the program grants totaling more than $130M have been and almost 1500 young women from 159 different institutions have received support. Nicole Di Fabio is a Senior Education Associate at American Chemical Society . She has a Masters degree in Anthropology and undergraduate degrees in Anthropology and Women’s Studies.

- Stamm explains “people with strong networks are able to learn from others with different knowledge or experience, get more things done more effectively, and are able to use their network as they wish to move on in their careers” (p. 126). Through her engagement and research with different networking groups, Stamm has identified these four beneficial aspects of networking groups for women, which include the “stimulation of exchange, cooperation, and new ideas; stimulation of research; stimulation of publications; and career advancement”
- Florence Passy and Marco Giugni (2001) explore how and why networks may be more or less appealing to certain people in their study “Social Networks and Individual Perceptions: Explaining Differential Participation in Social Movements.” They believe that SOCIAL NETWORKS SPUR ACTIVISM – both women and men may use SWE as a network in order to define and redefine themselves as a unified group hoping to transform engineering into a discipline that engages and advances women and men equally.

- Groups of engineers and engineering students in New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC held an organizational meeting. Their issues for discussion are probably an indication of problems they encountered. Establish a code of ethics – did they feel the engineers code of ethics (developed by white males) was not responsive enough to women’s ideas of ethical behavior? Were they experiencing unethical behavior in the workplace?
