WVU recently secured an ADVANCE grant from the National Science Foundation.
This grant is special because it focuses on transforming the institutional culture to be more supportive and nurturing of female faculty in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines to ensure that they reach their full potential.
Ultimately, success in this endeavor will lead to greater success of the faculty in research, teaching, and service.
Dunia Catalina Mendez-Vallejo is a Teaching Assistant Professor in the Department of Foreign Languages at WVU.
She earned a PhD in Linguistics and Hispanic Linguistics from Indiana University.
Her project for the Stitzel Endowment is to develop a new course on gender and language to help students understand gender issues by observing how people speak and write.
