I can't think of a better way to reflect unity and equality on the campus and in the community.

As a STEM (and STEAM) outreach speaker and conference attendee, I agree wholeheartedly. I would up the ante and make it a statue of 4 multiracial women working together as a team making sure to include an African American woman. Their numbers were very low in a recent county wide MS and HS county science fair I attended as a judge.

As a UI student who works with many amazing women, I would welcome a statue of a female engineer!

For all of the reasons so eloquently described in the petition, I can see no argument against this project.
