Dear NASA Quest Mail List Members,
Greetings from NASA Quest to you! This week’s posting is a longer than average
due to the number of upcoming events to share with you.
>>>> WON Celebrates Global Science and Technology Week <<<
Tish Krieg, Women of NASA project manager, has been hard at work organizing
the Women of NASA Celebrates Global Science and Technology Week
In honor of Global Science and Technology Week, May 7-13, 2000, NASA
Quest’s Women of NASA project (http://quest.nasa.gov/women ) will produce
a week-long series of interactive on-line events to celebrate NASA women
working on international scientific collaborations and the international
diversity of our female scientists. Students, parents and schools
worldwide are invited to join in and gain an appreciation for
international perspectives that will better prepare them to participate in
the world’s interdependent high-tech economy and the global scientific
community.
