Convocation: Sally Ride

"Reach for the Stars." As the first American woman in space, Sally Ride inspired a nation to turn its dreams into reality. Through her experiences serving on two Challenger missions and work in mission control, Ride helped change the image of space flight as a male-dominated field. Today she provides insight about NASA's role in our scientific and technological future. As a professor, author and activist, Ride has contributed to NASA's efforts with a groundbreaking study of the space program's future and by serving on the commission investigating the tragic Columbia malfunction. She is also the CEO of Imaginary Lines, a company dedicated to encouraging girls and young women interested in science, math and technology. Sponsored by the Elizabeth Nason Distinguished Women Visitors Fund.
