Hypatian Seminar

I co-founded and organized the Hypatian Seminar in the Mathematics Department at UCSB from 2005-2008. The seminar was started to support the retention of women and under-represented groups. We organized weekly activities which alternated between female or otherwise under-represented mathematicians presenting their own research, discussions, and panels on everything from job market preparation to the “two-body” problem. We also ran a mentoring program through the Hypatian Seminar which linked incoming graduate students with volunteers from the more established students in the program. It was very important to us that all of these activities were open to (and often attended by) everyone in the department. The seminar has run continuously from its inception in 2005 through at least Spring of 2017.
