*Women in Math Committee and Math Racial Equity Committee present: *

 Monday, May 10, 2021 at 2:00 PM  - 3:00 PM EDT
*Title: *The problem with role models
*Speaker:* Dr. Susama Agarwala
*Abstract:* In this talk, I present findings on the extent of the biases
faced by women in academia.
Furthermore, I present a model that explains that a few women being able to
break the glass ceiling is evidence of how deep the systematic biases are,
not merely a sign of progress.
