#GAReads | How Pi Day became synonymous with women's empowerment through STEM
“How Pi Day became synonymous with women's empowerment through STEM”:
This Pi Day, March 14, female STEM professionals around the United States once again wore purple to bring awareness to the need for more women in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) careers. This year marks the fourth annual #DressForSTEM event.
While women make up nearly half the workforce in the U.S., they hold only 24 percent of jobs in STEM, according to a government report published in 2017.
