"Following my Foremothers: The Curtiss Wright Cadette Program and Women Engineers during WWII"​

We had a great turnout on March 19th for a brief networking event followed by a seminar on women engineers during WWII given by Prof. Ruth Baltus of Clarkson University's Dept. of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. Curtiss Wright, an airplane manufacturer, trained women as engineers to fill the gaps left by drafted men during the war, yet there is very little information available on the program. Prof. Baltus, whose mother and aunt participated in the program, gave an engaging talk on this little known piece of women's history. The event was hosted by O'Brien & Gere, who also provided food.
