``Work with all your advisees, not just an inner circle. A star might be lurking quietly in the background.''
``Teach those you mentor about politics and business, as well as AI.''
``To be a good role model, be the best woman you can. Be a good researcher, and display this to others. Under the current momentum, historical underrepresentation will persist.''
``We need more women who are visible at the top.''
``My advisor supports a self-directed advising style. He prefers a `hands-off' approach. This teaches independence, which you'll need later.''
``Encourage women to develop and build independent computer systems. Having to demonstrate one's system repeatedly gives a student good exposure and visibility.''
A graduate student recommended that faculty members help or talk about things with women students: ``It is really good to be working for my [advisor]. She is very outspoken about women's issues and likes mentoring and encouraging women.''
Having talked about organizing graduate women's support groups, one professor discussed the need to support and encourage female undergraduates. She suggested having more luncheons and other meetings directed toward them.
