Abstract

CU Engineering hosts a Mocktail Party for women admitted to our college as part of our Admitted Student Weekend each April; a parent attends with each student. This celebration is also attended by current female engineering students, faculty and staff (plus the male dean J) and is an opportunity for admitted women to picture themselves as a part of our CU Engineering community. Typically, over 100 admitted women have attended this event and, of those, about 80% decide to enroll at CU
