I am moving to NSF for a one-year position. I feel like I
should tell you this because after years as a CSWA member, an AASWOMEN editor,
and a Women-in-Astronomy blogger, you readers are closer to me than some members
of my own department! The first question I asked was, “Can I finish out my term
as CSWA chair if I come to NSF?” Fortunately, the answer was, “Yes.” My husband
and I will be moving to Arlington, VA, in two weeks. I start work on Sept. 9.
Since there are a lot more astronomers in DC than there are in Memphis, it will
be absolutely great to see colleagues, both old and new, a lot more often -- Joan Schmelz
The AAS Committee on the Status of Women in Astronomy maintains this blog to disseminate information relevant to astronomers who identify as women and share the perspectives of astronomers from varied backgrounds. If you have an idea for a blog post or topic, please submit a short pitch (less than 300 words).
