The idea behind WIAA is to take away the stigma that women don’t belong, showing everyone that there is a community that can help ... break down stereotypes in the industry.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste, yet back in the mid-’70’s, I, personally, witnessed, the waste of countless of brilliant minds at UMCP. This was before CMSE and BES were formulated. We decided that we needed to do something to stop the wasteful trend, so we founded CMSE and BES to help to achieve the 3R’s, recruit, retain and release qualified minorities from the University of Maryland, into the fields of science and engineering. Over the past 40 years, I have witnessed many academic and career success stories of minority graduates from UMCP, and I am committed to helping this trend continue. I believe that the achievement of the 3 R’s remains an important goal at UMCP, the CMSE, and the BES and I am looking for others who share my vision.

Build a professional community around you; talk to your professors, and discover those who you admire the most to be your mentors. Don’t compare yourself to your peers; push each other to excel in your respective fields, but don’t block their road - they will be your support in years to come. Persevere always, be a fearless Terp!  “Failure is a feeling long before it becomes an actual result.” (M. Obama)
