Committee on the Status of Women in Astronomy

Thursday, January 13, 2005, 1:00-2:00pm, California

The Committee on the Status of Women in Astronomy (CSWA) will host a session focusing on ``The Pasadena Recommendations to Promote Equity in Astronomy." This session aims to educate AAS members about the recommendations and to begin to devise ways to implement them. We will start with a report on the outcome of presenting the recommendations to the January 2005 AAS Council meeting. This will be followed by a panel of invited speakers representing the different types of institutions (research universities, observatories, government labs, small colleges, etc.) discussing ideas for promoting and implementing the recommendations. The floor will then be opened to comments and suggestions by the audience. Organized by Patricia Knezek, Chair, CSWA: knezek@noao.edu
