I loved our @weconference21 panel! It was so inspiring to hear from my fellow panelists @MarcellaAlsan and @Becky_C_Royer ❤️

We should get ourselves a booking agent and take this awesome #girlpower show on the road! 🤣

My other fave moment in this session was when @savdonegan and I had both sides of the same question: she asked how to get professors involved in these initiatives, and I asked how professors can get involved! 🤣💪

[Dr. Lauren L. Schmitz @laurenlschmitz]

Honored to be speaking @weconference21 today! Women in Economics (WE) is an organization started by undergraduate students @UWMadison to help develop a more collaborative and inclusive community. So impressed with these strong, smart, and powerful young women.

From our WE Are the Future workshop: “Especially as women, it is amazing to get to empower each other and further our careers and education. Even if you are not officially in a leadership role, there is so much everyone else can learn from you.” #WEConference21 #WomenInEcon

[National Conference on Women in Economics 2021 @weconference21]

Presenter & conference outreach chair Clare Porter is keeping it real at our WE Are the Future workshop today: “What’s better than #HotGirlSummer? #SmartGirlSemester.” #WEConference21

[National Conference on Women in Economics 2021 @weconference21]

Our last workshop, “WE Are the Future,” is starting now! Join to hear from @wewisconsin leadership on how to build a successful organization to empower #WomenInEcon. #WEConference21 #WEAreResilient

Special shout-out to our PhD candidate panelist, Becky Royer, for holding her own as our only student on the panel! We are so lucky to hear from phenomenal emerging voices in our field as well as established professors. #WEConference21 #WEAreResilient

[National Conference on Women in Economics 2021 @weconference21]

Another gem from @cesicruz: “We can be nice and smart, we can be supportive and smart... we are doing this as a team. We have sisters and friends who can help us. We can smash the patriarchy and have fun too.” #GirlPower #WEConference21 #WEAreResilient

[National Conference on Women in Economics 2021 @weconference21]

From #RisingWomen’s Anastasia Razumova: “Be open minded, adapt to changes, and explore a diverse set of experiences. Don’t be afraid to take career risks and surround yourself with the people you want to be like one day.” #WEConference21 #WEAreResilient
