The Society of Women Engineers at Rochester Institute of Technology takes a stand for Diversity and Inclusion In this time, we must stand together to demand justice and work together to turn our pain into purpose We are angered and saddened by the recent events in Minneapolis that led to the death of George Floyd. As an organization we vehemently denounce racism! Systemic racism faced by those of color in our communities across the United States has become all too familiar.... Nothing will change if those outside the impacted communities stand by and do nothing. We must be true allies, standing shoulder to shoulder, asking the tough questions of our civic leaders. See the link in our bio for SWE's complete statement

Today we celebrate 70 years of SWE On this day in 1950, SWE began as the world’s largest advocate and catalyst for change for women in engineering and technology! #womeninengineering #rittigers #ritswe #ritengineering #stem #engineering #kgcoe #ritstudentlife #RIT #swefoundersday #womeninstem
