Longtime SftP member Michael Teel, formerly an instructor in a course called "Science and Society" at U-Mass at Amherst and presently a labor organizer there, also insists that it is the AAAS that has changed.

She was also a junior golf champion and a wartime civilian flying instructor for the Navy. When she graduated from college in 1947, one of her teachers warned her that orchestra conducting was a male preserve, and so she went to the Juilliard School to study choral conducting with Robert Shaw, now music director of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. Shaw soon named her assistant...
