I think a good point was brought up about the discrimination that the women in the early 1900's faced. Having to face so many challenges just to do something you love it hard. I know I wouldn't have the patience to do such tasks if I wasn't going to be given credit for them. I like to be given recognition for the accomplishments I made. I wouldn't have wanted to publish something under someone else’s name. I think Lise Meitner is a great testimony to perseverance and is someone we can all learn a lot from. She was forced to work in the basement of her collages because she was a woman. She continued her studies and worked just as hard to have no credit put to her name. Without the insistence of these amazing previous women in science, I would definitely be considering a different field of study. I would not want to go into a field where I know I would be facing discrimination on a daily basis. I probably be considering a field in teaching or even the possibility of a stay at home mother. I owe so much to the previous women in science, because they have made it possible for me to be one of the future women in science without going through all the trials that they all went through.
