  • SEXUAL HARASSMENT of WOMEN in ACADEMIC SCIENCES, ENGINEERING, and MEDICINE Statement of Paula A
    SEXUAL HARASSMENT OF WOMEN IN ACADEMIC SCIENCES, ENGINEERING, AND MEDICINE Statement of Paula A. Johnson, MD, MPH President Wellesley College and Co-Chair, Committee on the Impacts of Sexual Harassment in Academia Committee on Women in Science, Engineering, and Medicine Division on Policy and Global Affairs The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine before the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology U.S. House of Representatives June 12, 2019 Good morning, Madam Chairwoman Johnson, Ranking Member Lucas, and members of the Committee. My name is Paula Johnson. I am President of Wellesley College and served as co-chair of the Committee on the Impacts of Sexual Harassment in Academia of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, which was formed in October 2016, and which released its final report on June 12, 2018 – one year ago today. The National Academy of Sciences was chartered by Congress in 1863 to advise the government on matters of science and technology and later expanded to include the National Academies of Engineering and Medicine. The National Academies have always concerned themselves with addressing some of society's toughest challenges and with matters that affect the integrity of science and the health of the nation. So it was fitting for them to take up the question of how sexual harassment impacts academic fields of science, engineering, and medicine, and therefore impacts the scientists, physicians, engineers, and practitioners that work in these fields and society more broadly. This work, and the outreach efforts conducted since the report was released, has been generously supported by the National Science Foundation, as the lead sponsor, as well as by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Burroughs Wellcome Fund, the Henry Luce Foundation, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and the Alfred P.
