WOMEN TOO SMART?

OPPORTUNITY CALLS: Careers Open to Women in Scientific Field 4) "Do men really like intelligent women?" is the question most fre- quently asked of Lynn White, Jr., president of Mills College in Cali- fornia. Dr. White stated that the be- lief that men do not like intelli- gent women can be attributed to the different rate of maturity in boys and girls. * * * AT HIGH SCHOOL age boys, generally less mature mentally and physically than girls, are placed in unfair competition with their classmates of the opposite sex. In rebellion they develop a dislike for intelligent women. Dr. White added that this feeling sometimes continues into the first years of college and usually evaporates before grad- uation. Another theory which Dr. White presented is that the qualities that the mature man wants in his wife are best developed in non-co-edu- cational colleges. THE STRUCTURE of a women's college builds up her confidence and dynamism, Dr. White pointed out. "In co-educational classes, men who ask questions think of the questions, while women who ask questions think first of the effect their words might have on "business Careers { ) VIAr COLLGE 4-MONTH INTENSIVE COURSE SECRETARIAL TRAINING for COLLEGE STUDENTS and GRADUATES Starting June, October, February Bulletin A, on request.

Her particular training may di- rect her to a fascinating and prof- itable career, since opportunities for women in science are almost endless. Such opportunities usually are limited only by one's capabilities rather than by sex. While the medical profession is still some- what restricted in its acceptance of women, the related fields seem to be singularly lacking in preju- dice and frequently welcome and encourage women scientists. * * * WOMEN WHO have an inclina- tion towiard mathematics, physics or various combinations of sciencesE may find interesting jobs as ex-1 aminers and searchers in govern- ment patent work. Some women with training in science and in legal procedure have become successful patent attorneys. The technical librarian plays an important part in scientific re- search. She is trained in. both science and library work. Besides a job in a university or medical library, she may find opportuni- ties in the library of an industrial company, an army medical li- brar , the patent office or in the libraries of research organiza- tions. * * * i writing, there is opportunity for free lance journalism as well as for writing and editing scientific articles, papers and magazines. Women also can excel in the field of technical illustration. Diagrams and illustrations for textbooks, manuals and guide books are made either from ' drawings or photographs. Biological supply houses, muse- ums and research foundations re- quire scientific artists to illustrate pubhcations. Women are hired by them as well as by the United States Department of Agriculture and other federal agencies. * * * THERE HAS always been a de- mand for technical secretaries and stenographers by the executives of chemical manufacturing plants and research institutions. The scientific secretary hand- les correspondence, takes and types reports and maintains files. Part of her time is spent in the laboratory taking down observations, keeping records and doing similar tasks. Museum work appeals to many women. This field ranges from collecting and mounting specimens to acting as curator of special de- partments. Tracking down speci- mens may even lead her to thel far corners of the world. * * * THE WOMAN interested in technical work may become a medical technician or medical technologist for which specific training is required. The majority of technicians in hospital or medi- cal laboratories and in public health organizations are women. For further information con- cerning the varied opportunities whcih are open to women in the scientific world, bulletins a r e available from the U.S. Depart- ment of Commerce and of Labor, and from the American Associa- tion of University Women.
