Description:"This, the third Expanding Opportunities in Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences Conference was significant in several ways. First, it was a follow-up and extension of the work of two previous Expanding Opportunities Conferences held in 1995 and 1999. Second, it provided a forum for the dedication in memory of Dr. Nancy Foster who championed the Expanding Opportunities cause beginning with the first Conference in 1995. Third, the number of participants in attendance exceeded each of the first two Conferences which indicates that the issues of diversity and true equal opportunity are crucial for all in our schools and businesses, and, more generally, in society and our nation. Thus, Conference participants came to work actively on developing strategic actions to expand diversity and opportunities for individuals from traditionally underrepresented ethnic groups in the marine, atmospheric, and environmental fields"--Executive Summary.
