Celebrate International Women's Day by joining Women in Math (WiM) and
Women in Computer Science (WiCS) for a fun game night to learn poker with
the UW Poker Club and chess with the UW Chess Club!

Did you know only about 5% of professional poker players and 15% of all the
licensed chess players are women?
Join us in a safe and encouraging environment for all levels to learn and
play these games.
Learn how to apply skills used in these games such as confidence,
calculated risk-taking, reading your opponents and critical thinking to the
real world.

Come out on March 8th from 4:00-6:00 pm to Up Your Game in poker and chess.
All levels are welcome!
The event is open to *all genders, faculty, students, staff, postdocs and
