ARGUMENT IN SUPPORT: The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) writes in support:
Introduce a Girl Day to Engineering Day is intended to help focus a growing movement to inspire girls’ futures, so they learn they have a place in engineering a better world. On that day, ASCE encourages its members to make a difference by sharing their knowledge, experience, and some fun! They give girls the chance to think like an engineer and develop an engineer’s problem-solving approach – whether they enter a STEM profession or some other career.
