Northern Illinois University
2003 Conference for Young Women
Sponsored by:
College of Liberal Arts & Sciences
Women's Studies Program
“I learned about women’s roles
in the work force
and not to be intimidated from what I love to do.”
“I got a little more self-confidence
– it’s okay to be me and I shouldn’t let the
fact that
I’m a woman make any difference in my choices.”
“From today’s activities, I learned
a lot about what college is going to be like
and it gave me more ideas for a career.”
“Everyone was so positive. I learned a
lot, and got great insight into
my field of interest – and inspiration, which I needed greatly.”
