Dr. Judith M. Iriarte-Gross Chemistry Professor and Director of the Women in STEM Center, MTSU
A native of Washington, D.C., Dr. Judith M. Iriarte-Gross is nationally known for encouraging girls and women in the sciences and has been recognized with numerous awards and accolades. She is a professor of Chemistry and director of the Women In STEM (WISTEM) Center at Middle Tennessee State University. Before joining MTSU in 1996, she worked as a chemist for the FDA and as a chemist and lab manager in the plastics industry. During 1990–96, Iriarte-Gross volunteered with Expanding Your Horizons (EYH) conferences in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. After moving to Murfreesboro, Iriarte-Gross started the first EYH in Tennessee, which has served over 7,550 girls. EYH introduces middle and high school girls to role models and mentors in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) through hands-on, girls-only workshops. Girls from Tennessee, as well as southern Kentucky, northern Alabama, and Atlanta, have attended the EYH events at MTSU. Tennessee is now home to seven EYH conference sites (Chattanooga, Columbia, Gallatin, Maryville, Memphis, Morristown, and Murfreesboro), while Knoxville has a planning committee in place. Iriarte-Gross has been a principal investigator (PI) or co-PI on six National Science Foundation (NSF) awards, including a 2007 grant titled “A Dissemination Project to Increase Girls Raised in Tennessee Science (GRITS).” The National Girls Collaborative Project (NGCP) then named her lead of the GRITS Collaborative Project for the state of Tennessee in 2008. In 2009, she was appointed director of the WISTEM Center at MTSU, the first such center in Tennessee for girls and women in STEM. Iriarte-Gross also is faculty advisor of MTSU’s Women In Science and Engineering (WISE) student organization and WISE living-learning community. In 2014, she and four other STEM faculty at MTSU were awarded an NSF ADVANCE grant for the study “A Catalyst to ADVANCE the Participation and Advancement of Women in Academic STEM Careers at Middle Tennessee State University.” In 2016, Iriarte-Gross was named a fellow of both the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Additionally, she received the 2016 William E. Bennett Award for Extraordinary Contributions to Citizen Science from the National Center for Science and Civic Engagement and the 2017 Dreyfus Foundation/American Chemical Society Award for Encouraging Women into Careers in the Chemical Sciences. In 2018, Iriarte-Gross was selected as the ACS Local Section Outreach Volunteer of the Year and was given the Career Achievement Award at MTSU. A former Upward Bound student, she received the TRIO Achievers Award for Washington, D.C., in 2010. She is an active member of the American Chemical Society, serves on both the Nashville and national Women Chemists Committees of the ACS, and was named to the ACS Leadership Advisory Board.

Gov. Bill Lee 50th Governor of Tennessee
As a seventh-generation Tennessean, Gov. Bill Lee’s roots run deep in this state. He was raised in Franklin, where he still resides today with his wife Maria on his family’s farm. He’s the proud father of four adult children (Jessica, twin sons Jacob and Caleb, and Sarah Kate) and five grandchildren. After attending Williamson County Schools, Lee attended Auburn University, where he studied Mechanical Engineering. When he graduated, he returned home to Franklin to join the family business his grandfather started in 1944. Through hard work, Lee learned what it takes to lead a company, doing what is necessary to help build a business and create jobs. He held several roles at Lee Co. before becoming company president in 1992. Under his leadership, the company grew into a comprehensive facilities solutions and home services company. It now employs more than 1,200 individuals and has won numerous awards for work culture and business accomplishments. Lee, who stepped down as chair and resigned from his company before his 2019 inauguration, was named a “Most Admired CEO” in 2015 by the Nashville Business Journal. The new governor said throughout his campaign that he woke up every morning focused on how to make life better for his employees, and now he’s excited to wake up every morning trying to improve the lives of 6.5 million Tennesseans. As the state’s 50th governor, Lee is focused on several priorities including good jobs, great schools, and safe neighborhoods to keep Tennessee moving in the right direction. Bill and Maria Lee are active in Grace Chapel Church and in numerous faith-based ministries, which have taken them all over the world to serve people in need, including to Africa, Central America, and the Middle East.
