I did a pro bono job for the GED Success Program last month: key fob, poster and shirts. Fun, and for a good cause: to promote a workshop and encourage female students to shake off the stupid stereotype that they can't 'do math.'
Cool Artwork Chrissie! I think it's great you got involved with something you feel strongly about. Stereotypes are for folks that want to ignore the truth, or sweep it under a rug. I also think it's great you encourage women to persevere! Keep on
What a great image you created. Do you know that I have a similarly themed website: www.TheMathMom.com that illuminates and demystifies mathematics for women presenting it as cool, non-intimidating and fun. We should keep in touch for any potential future collaboration. best! Maria, TheMathMom

Thanks a lot, Bill! I like your thoughts on stereotypes; my feeling exactly.
The folks at the GED program do great work, and I was really pleased to be able to be a part of it.
Yippie! Very fun. I'll be on the watch to purchase a t-shirt! :-) Thanks for your good works! Diana G.
Why thank you, Ms. G! 'Tis always a treat when you stop by my blog! :D
Happy Thanksgiving Chrissie!
Thank you, Bill! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. :)
