[Katharina von Salis]

Von Liisa Husu via eq-uni:

>Please find below information on an interesting conference in May. It is
>also a pleasure to tell you that there are currently 388 subscribers on eq-
>uni! Please keep the list informed of relevant forthcoming events, new
>publications on the area, new policy developments etc. Remember that you
>may also use the list for requests for information and for searching
>expertise, co-operation partners etc. across Europe (and even beyond) on
>topics related to gender equality in higher 
>education/academia/science.

Das gilt natuerlich auch fuer equal@ - schweizweit und darueber 
hinaus in den deutschsprachigen Raum.
Ja, das ist so eine Sache mit den Frauen im "industrial research". 
Habe ein Gefuehl, dass wir einfach lieber das Handstricken 
perfektionieren als uns auf Maschinen einzulassen, oder gar noch 
deren Verbesserung. Kein gutes Bild, ich weiss. Aber in der Sache 
offenbar doch so - sonst waeren da laengst viele Frauen am Tuefteln, 
Entwickeln  und so. Aber wir sind einfach happy mit dem, was alles 
schon vorhanden ist.
Oder warum nur?
