Kimberley Lakes have agreed to step in as interim co-chairs to lead us through the rest of the academic year. Katherine and I (rotating off as co-chairs) will continue to serve on the WFA steering committee. The focus of the WFA continues to be vigilance
and advocacy around issues related to gender equity on our campus (including salary equity, equity in merit and promotion, and so on). </span></div>
