"You cannot imagine how much I've changed since we started the mentoring process...I now know when and how to speak my mind." - MentorNet Protégé

"Until women and people of color are fully represented in the fields of science and engineering, society is losing out on the talents of a vast number of potential contributors. Academic institutions are losing out. Corporations are losing out. Individuals are losing out. We all lose out." - Carol B. Muller, Ph.D., Founder, MentorNet
