Green Ribbon Week

Every year our local chapter of Graduate Women in Science (GWIS) asks that Penn State faculty, post-doc, and graduate students wear a green ribbon for one week in recognition of the role women have played in science and engineering and the obstacles that they still face.

Green Ribbon Week usually corresponds to the week immediately prior to the VOICES Conference.

Ribbons will be available for all who attend the Green Ribbon Kick-Off social (details vary each year). Ribbons are also distributed to the departments for female faculty, post-doc, and graduate students in the sciences and engineering colleges (Ag, ENGR, EMS, HHD, IST, SCI).
