The Grace Hopper Conference is a conference for women in computing, which is
held every other year and this year it was in Chicago. My advanced networking
research project was big enough to be submitted to the conference and my
partner, Hetal, and I presented it at the poster session on Wednesday night.
I also presented at the CRAW (Computing Research Association for Women) reunion
on Friday night as a Distributed Mentor Project participant (the summer I spent
in Minneapolis).
| A lot of friends showed up as well. From left to right: Clint (Chicago),
Jackie (Kansas City), Mike (Chicago), Sondra (Argonne), Hetal and me--no nametags are being hidden (i.e. crashing was encouraged). ;) |

Cancer Awareness Marathon this week. This shot also includes some of the
Millenium Park Amphitheater. |
