[Che-student-staff-list] FW: [Che-staff-list] Dr. Beth Holloway Lecture - all invited to attend

[Farmus, Cristina D]

This is an important topic for our School, I hope you will all find the time to attend, even if we have to close the main office and the business office.

You may be aware that this year our School launched the Purdue Pipeline Center, with the vision for all women in chemical engineering to reach and shape their full potential. This seminar is just the first step in a series of educational activities meant to raise awareness of issues faced in the workplace and improve the culture to ensure everyone can reach their full potential.

I definitely hope to see all our staff and faculty attend this event.

Cristina

"Implicit Bias - or - How Good Intentions Aren't Enough to Create an Equitable and Inclusive Environment"

Tuesday, September 20, 2016
3:00 - 4:15 p.m.
FRNY G140

Reception at 2:30 p.m. in Henson Atrium

Abstract:  Implicit bias is a cognitive shortcut that all people can use when making judgments.  This seminar will increase your awareness of what implicit bias is as it relates to gender, and how and when gender-based implicit bias is manifested, particularly in academic STEM environments.   Research on the impacts on the target of bias will be presented, as well as strategies to become aware of our biases and reduce our use of them.

Bio:   Dr. Beth Holloway is the Director of the Women in Engineering Program (WIEP) and the Assistant Dean for Undergraduate Education in the College of Engineering at Purdue.  Her research areas include differential retention issues for students across engineering disciplines; engineering admissions practices; and women and leadership, particularly in male dominated careers.  She received the 2013 Purdue Helen B. Schleman Gold Medallion award for her work on behalf of undergraduate students, particularly women.  Holloway received the 2015 ASEE William E. Wickenden Award for the best article in the Journal of Engineering Education for 2014.
She has been the advisor for the Purdue section of the Society of Women Engineers since 2001, and received the 2012 Society of Women Engineers Outstanding Faculty Advisor Award.  Holloway was president of the Women in Engineering ProActive Network (WEPAN) in 2006-07.  She was the chair of the Women in Engineering Division of ASEE in 2014-16.  Holloway received B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mechanical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Engineering Education, all from Purdue University.
