Description
Michelle Wildgen—editor, teacher, and author—will lead a Wisconsin Science Festival writing workshop on scientific identity. Aimed at students but open to all, the session explores what it means to “belong in science.” Through discussion and writing, participants will examine assumptions about who fits in STEM, broaden ideas of identity, and reflect on how belonging (or not) shapes persistence in science. Registration required, limited space.
