[ih] historical barriers to equality for women in internetworking

[Greg Skinner]

Some of you may have seen the results of the recent research done to understand issues women face who participate in the IETF. [1] In the process of searching for flag day experiences, I found a report published in February 1983 that, in a similar manner, discusses barriers to equality faced by some female grad students and staff members of MIT’s Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science labs. [2]  Deborah Estrin, Liza Martin, and Karen Sollins contributed to this report.
