For March 08, 2024
International Women's Day
Today is International Women's Day. This year's theme is Invest in women: Accelerate progress. As we take time today to celebrate women and their achievements, read about just a few of the ways women at Dal are showing what's possible through progress.
Three members of Dalhousie's Women in Research Caucus share their experiences rising to leadership roles, the importance of mentorship from other women, and how academia benefits from greater female representation.
Jody Couch, Dal's chief information officer and assistant vice-president of Information Technology Services, was encouraged by others when first starting out in tech. Now, she strives to pay it back.
Cynthia Pilichos, co-lead on the Dalhousie Alumni Association, introduces us to the roots of the Women's Division — the oldest alumni association at Dal — and the evolution of fundraising from the 1980s to now.
This Saturday, Dal faculty members are among a group of accomplished writers coming together for a free, off-campus reading event in honour of International Women's Day.
