Bring IT On! Receives Grant:
An IU-based program aimed at encouraging young people to pursue careers in computer technology will receive
a boon from a new grant.

Indiana University.
Suzanne Menzel, a senior lecturer in the CS department,

designed to attract girls and minorities to computer technology-related fields by dispelling popular myths
about those fields. She received a $5000 grant to
support her work from the Avon Hello Tomorrow Fund.
