This is a program that I'll be participating in this year, so I'm not sure how good it might be. But, judging by the apparent dearth of women in the Perl community, I think it would be a good thing to get some mongerish representation. Please forward this as you see fit. Mark ----- Forwarded message from "Rogaski, Mark, ALNTK" <rogaski@att.com> ----- MentorNet Call for E-Mentors Would you like to share your experiences with a student? Help her understand what it is like to work in industry? Provide support as a woman student pursues an engineering or science education? And be able to do so without having to leave your own desk? MentorNet is seeking engineering, scientific and technical professionals to mentor women engineering and science students on-line! MentorNet is a national program that pairs women community college, undergraduate and graduate students with mentors in industry, and provides a framework and training for them to pursue a year-long mentoring relationship through email. Mentors in last year's program reported spending only an average of 20 minutes a week while gaining personal satisfaction and skills from guiding future colleagues. We need at least 2,200 mentors for the fall of 2000 to be paired with students from over 55 colleges and universities! To learn more and/or to sign up, visit the MentorNet web site at http://www.mentornet.net and click on the "Mentors" link. Mentor applications for the upcoming year's program are available on the web site now through October 15; at other times you can add yourself to a distribution list to be notified via email when applications open. Sign up now! Please pass this message on to any others that you think might be interested.
