I was invited to a panel for women engineering graduate students that featured women engineering faculty at different stages of their careers. Thankfully, the event was in English (for me and two graduate students), so I actually understood everything that was said (a nice change!).

We took a break with lovely refreshments, then a woman faculty and her non-faculty husband shared some frank remarks.

I was also introduced and got a plug for my up-coming leadership workshop. They talked about children, the pressure of academia, two-career families - the whole back story.
