Well soror, I respectfully disagree. I do not consider my GPA to be low. I am in a very demanding program at one of the top research institutions in the country, and in the fall, I will be pursuing my PhD in chemistry at one of the nation's premier institutions. I'm saying that to demonstrate that a 2.8 is NOT low - in fact, compared to others in my program, its pretty high.

I'm not saying take a young woman with a 1.5 or 2.0 even, but making the requirement 3.0? I personally think we will be shooting ourselves in the foot. While GPA is somewhat important, it is not an absolute indication of a person's work ethic, drive, or intelligence. I could have had a 4.0 if I majored in something that came easier to me. Yet I went to something that challenged me and make me work hard, and as a result, I wasn't perfect. But I learned a ton about myself as a person, and I think that's the type of quality woman we want to attract to Sigma.

on your accomplishments.
