Biology, Illinois State University, 1983 Committee Chair: Annette Hemmings, Ph.D. Abstract The major purpose of this study was to examine, through the use of oral history technique, the lived experiences of seven women scientists and the factors that affected their pursuit of science. Numerous reports indicate that while women are gaining ground in the sciences, they are behind their male counterparts in many areas and continue to face barriers (National Science Foundation Report, 2002; Wilson, 2004). There is still work to be done to understand how gender differences in science participation affect the lives of women scientists (Clewell and Campbell, 2002). The qualitative data from seven women’s histories was coded to identify emerging themes in the areas of family life, education and experiences with science. The seven women interviewed represented work in science, technology, engineering and math, had terminal degrees and 10 to 55 years of professional experience. Six themes were identified as major factors in the science careers of these women; experiences with science, support from others, an ethic of care, passions of the mind, self efficacy in science and belonging vs. marginality. Each of these had some impact on each woman’s sense of identity as a scientist and their strong sense of agency for accomplishing their career goals. The factors and influences that lead them to their careers speak to the ways in which they were able to overcome any barriers and become successful scientists. The stories of these women present a picture that is both consistent with and offers some challenge to the feminist critique of science. While their stories attest to the predominance of males in science they also refute that image in the way these women were able to create a science career for themselves that is not solely defined by the conditions of a male science. As the feminist critique suggests, gender is an important variable in the factors influencing the pursuit of science. While these women acknowledged the role of gender in their scientific experience they often saw it as outside themselves. This study offers some assertions that might be considered for further research into how women can successfully pursue science careers. A woman who has a head full of Greek like Madame Dacier or one who engages in debate about the intricacies of mechanics like Marquise du Chatelet, might just as well have a beard, for that expresses in more recognizable form the profundity for which she strives.

Butler © 2018 Jonathan Lawrence Hall ii ABSTRACT Girls and women face several forms of gender-based biases and discrimination in the science community. These issues create difficult circumstances for them to develop positive science identities. Since these difficult circumstances exist, science education and sociology researchers have used a deficit model to learn about their experiences, achievements, and attitudes. Understanding the experiences of successful women in science offers insight into how women can navigate the challenges presented by the science community and how science educators can support them.

  • Ruth Patrick 1907–2013
    Resolution of Respect Ruth Patrick 1907–2013 Ruth Myrtle Patrick Hodge Van Dusen Born 26 November 1907, Topeka, Kansas. Died 23 September 2013, Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania. B.S., 1929, Coker College, Hartsville, South Carolina; M.S., 1931 and Ph.D., 1934, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia. Major Professor Ivy Lewis. After working at the Academy of Natural Sciences (ANSP) while a graduate student and as volunteer Curator of the Microscopy Department (beginning in 1933), she became an employee in 1945. In 1947, Ruth Patrick founded the Limnology Department and began her development into a scientist who merited first national and then international attention. Ruth Patrick was a member of the Ecological Society of America and was named a fellow in 2012; however, her primary contribution was outside the Society, where she tirelessly persuaded individuals in other professions that “you can’t live a day without diatoms,” i.e., humans depend on nature. Ruth Patrick’s primary contribution to science and society was the discovery that living organisms responded to the aggregate of all pollutants in natural systems. She also provided evidence that communities of organisms were more reliable indicators of pollution than single species. Announcements January 2014 11 Announcements Other writings on Ruth cover her lifelong interest in nature, which started with her father’s love of the natural world. From this beginning, she forged a place for herself and other women in the world of scientific research, a mostly male-dominated field during her lifetime. Ruth married Charles Hodge IV, father of her only son Charles, and then Lewis H.

We have found original ways to develop unusual breadth, scope, and mindshare. We have created three Philadelphia campuses; established the Center for Graduate Studies in Sacramento; forged new model partnerships with the Academy of Natural Sciences and regional colleges; acquired a College of Medicine, a College of Nursing and Health Professions, and a School of Public Health; founded the Earle Mack School of Law; and continued the dramatic expansion of Drexel e-Learning. Today, Drexel has all of the makings to define the great, modern, urban university of the future. Now we must ensure that we are always more than the sum of our parts. As One University, we will guide each student’s path so that his or her potential may be realized at Drexel. As One University, we will empower our faculty members to continue to develop fields of excellence and hubs of innovation. As One University, our professional staff will work together across units to create effective, efficient means to support education and scholarly work. Together, we will think and act across boundaries to transform our campuses, our neighborhood, and our world through the power of unfettered intellect.

We are proud to honor eighteen women whose pioneering work includes scienti!c breakthroughs, life-saving discoveries, invention of new technologies, creation of organizations, and the promotion of women and girls in STEM. Unfortunately, women remain largely underrepresented in many STEM professions and academic programs. In this gazette we highlight many organizations and programs working to promote women's and girls’ interest and participation in STEM. From engaging elementary students in STEM to !ghting pay discrimination, their efforts are actively working to change the face of STEM. We invite you to explore the many women who have made extraordinary contributions to the STEM !elds. We also encourage you to consider the ways in which you can promote women and girls in STEM.
