Google panel on non-traditional routes for women in computer science

Attention, Kate, KC, and Dori. Google is sponsoring a panel on non-traditional ways for women to enter the computer science field:

The Anita Borg Institute for Women and Technology and Google are pleased to co-sponsor an all-star female panel on education options for entering and re-entering Computer Science and IT on Wednesday, June 2 at 6:00pm at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, CA. Attendance is free but space is limited and you must pre-register. One of the many myths about the computer industry is that you must be young to enter the field. To the contrary, many highly successful women and men study Computer Science when well past traditional college age. Several innovative programs exist in the Bay Area for older students, with or without a diploma, who wish to study Computer Science.

Update: Well, it didn’t take long for Dori to point out what’s wrong with this picture.
