We're ridiculously excited to have acquired the archive of surgeon Helen McMillan, who became our third female Fellow in 1921. Her collection is a #WomenInSurgery treasure trove of photographs, letters, diaries & artwork. Just in time for #InternationalWomensDay!

Trump Clashes With Maine’s Governor, Janet Mills, Over Trans Athletes President Trump asked Gov. Janet Mills if her state would comply with the executive order he signed banning transgender athletes from women’s sports. He didn’t like her answer.

Go Governor Janet Mills of Maine! She told Trump, “see you in court” over banning transgender athletes. #resist #DoNotComply

“This convening, for too many people across America in education, feels like the ultimate gotcha moment."
“It doesn’t sound like people who are actually trying to solve for something that I believe we should be doing everything we can to solve for.” 100%
