Organized as two tracks

3. Why are there so many women in Molecular Biology?
“There were great female founders in the field in the early 20th century who inspired generations of women, creating opportunities for women to thrive and reach National Academy of Sciences status. These were role models, catalysts."
-- Shirley M. Tilghman, President of Princeton
Where is the "female factor” in CS?
It’s here! It’s us!

4. Today women hold 27% of all (nontenure track) instructor positions but only 10% of the full professorships !
CAPP GOAL: Increase the number
of women who are promoted to full professor and serve in leadership roles in the CS community.
