She didn&#x27;t have the connections to drop out of school so she finished her BS and MS at MIT.<p>There are plenty of phenomenal female role models out there.  I had three women on my committee in grad school.  One co-directing a major research center.  One a successful entrepreneur and one a new upcoming research associate.<p>Anyone looking for strong female role models just needs to open their eyes.
