VT Women Faculty

The Story of Gail

Virginia Tech's Advance proposal describes the experiences of "Gail," a fictitious female junior faculty member in engineering, and how her relationships with male peers change as a result of Advance program activities.

"Gail" has taken on a life of her own as a metaphor for the Advance program. The AdvanceVT Team offers its collective wisdom about being a woman in science and engineering to anyone who would like to send a question to AskGail@vt.edu. Comments and observations are also welcome.

When contacting "Gail," please let us know if we may post your question or comment to the AdvanceVT website. Thank you.

Please note: Ask Gail submissions are not anonymous since incoming emails identify your PID. Your identity will, however, be kept strictly confidential and submissions will only be posted to the AdvanceVT website with your permission.
