Freshman intern Erin McGuire (Tektronix Scholar) will be headed to University of Oregon’s Math program in the Fall. During her time with Women Role Models, she single-handedly documented our plans and wrote a grant. Her dedication and work ethic are outstanding. She will be missed!

Graduating Senior, Amanda Rickenbach, has produced five video interviews this year, all of which are hosted here and on YouTube. Her dedication to completing this work while finishing her degree is greatly appreciated. Her work producing our first year’s worth of interviews will inspire many interns to come!

Thank you both for your contributions to this program and to the many girls and women who need to know “they can do it!”
