Reception for Women Chemical Engineers at the AIChE Meeting in San Francisco, November 6, 1989

人力资源开发问题是当前工程领域的当务之急。我们需要努力鼓励妇女、少数民族和残疾人选择工程领域的职业。这项拨款是为1989年在加州旧金山举行的美国化学工程师协会年度会议上为化学工程领域的女性举办的招待会提供资金。目的是让女性有机会见面并讨论共同关心的问题。招待会对所有参加会议的人开放。会议的一个成果是一份美国所有女教员的名单，这份名单会被传阅，应该有助于打开沟通渠道。

The problems of human resource development are of high priority at this time for Engineering. Efforts to encourage women, minorities and the handicapped to choose careers in engineering are needed. This grant is to provide funds for a reception for women in chemical engineering to be held at the 1989 annual American Institute of Chemical Engineers meeting in San Francisco, CA. The purpose is to give women a chance to meet and discuss issues of common concern. The reception is open to all who are attending the meeting. A product of the meeting is a list of all female faculty members in the US, a list that is circulated and should help open lines of communication.
