WASHINGTON – On Monday, March 29, 2010, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, in partnership with The White House Council on
Women and Girls, will convene a Women in Finance Symposium in celebration of Women's History Month. The symposium will bring
together senior administration officials, private sector leaders, university presidents and women entering the field for a series of panel
discussions to recognize the contributions of women and to discuss the best means to foster success among future generations of women
in the public and private finance sectors.
The Administration is also offering the opportunity for students around the country to engage in the symposium via webcast. In addition to
providing insight about how each achieved success in the world of finance, symposium panelists will answer questions submitted in

through the close of business on Friday, March 26, and gather for "watch parties" to see their questions answered live throughout the
