Greetings,

As we celebrate Women's History Month, we wanted to recognize some of the many UC women who are changing the world in research, sports, technology, and new discoveries.

We are grateful for their lasting contributions that benefit our society, while simultaneously inspiring generations of young women to pursue their dreams.

Below are a number of recent articles from throughout the UC system highlighting trailblazing UC women and their impact:

• UC Women Nobel Laureates that Changed the World (UCOP)
• Democracies Boost Women's Participation in Labor Market (UC Riverside)
• Bruins Basketball Team Reaches First-Ever Final Four (UCLA)
• Do Women Leaders Drive Better Environmental Outcomes? (UC San Diego)
• Inaugural Women in Stem Science Symposium (UCLA)

Thank you for your dedication to the University of California and thank you to the California Women's Legislative Caucus for your leadership and courage.

Save the Date! In other news, Friends of the UC is celebrating 5 years. To recognize you and our many partners, we will be hosting a 501(c)(4) fundraising reception and awards night in Sacramento on Monday, June 2 at 6:00 pm. A formal invitation is coming soon.

Fiat Lux,

Bettina Duval & Cathy Unger

p.s. Did you know that the UCs have 70 Nobel Laureates and counting?
