This Moment, We Own It!

Sunday was #InternationalWomen'sDay, but we are celebrating all month long!  Do you know of an outstanding woman, or women, in STEM deserving of celebration?  We are looking to recognize and honor them through Own It!

Wyoming EPSCoR is hosting their 5th Annual Own It Event on April 9th.  Own It was created to celebrate and recognize women in STEM at the University of Wyoming and in the local community.  Started in 2016, Own It began gaining traction as the number of nominations grew each year.  Past recipients and current nominees, along with their families and friends, gather each spring to marvel at the work women are doing in STEM.  

Hosting 6 nomination categories this year, Own It will celebrate numerous undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and community members.  Each nomination category is carefully scrutinized by the selection committee, and winners are recognized later in the evening.  Adults will spend their time wining and dining with their peers while their children spend time in the Kid's Corner.  All in all, Own It is a wonderful evening of recognition and appreciation (along with a break from the kiddos).

Come join us at this year's event!  Own It will be hosted on April 9th from 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm in the Business Building Atrium.  For more information on the event, or to nominate a woman/women in your life who are making an impact through STEM, check out this year's website.
