The WiE Whine & Cheese event is a chance to mingle with current students, alumni, and staff to discuss gender roles in STEM. Based on the work of Whine&Cheese, this is a great opportunity to discuss important topics on academics, student life, workplace, co-op, unconscious bias, etc. at University of Waterloo.

This is not a pity party! For every whine that is shared, a cheese, or reason to smile, should follow. Come on out for good people, free cheese and delicious mocktails. All are welcome:)
