Teen Girls Learn About Aviation, Construction and Engineering
August 1, 2004
By Professor William Bender
Central Washington University hosted a weekend Aviation, Construction and Engineering (ACE) Academy for young girls between the ages of 14 to 16 to experience these technical fields.  The first ever ACE Academy was 30 July to 1 August on the campus in Ellensburg and was attended by 24 girls from all over Washington State.  The girls stayed in the dorms and had a chance to take a flight lesson, engineer a device, launch water rockets, and build a project.  In the construction portion of the academy the girls learned about construction careers for women, meet current women construction professionals, took of field trip to an active construction site, and tested construction materials in the laboratory.  On Sunday CWU’s President Jerlynn McIntyre presented the girls with certificates of completion and encouraged them to consider career fields that are not typically pursued by young women.
