Gender-Specific Networking

by Nicholas Beaudrot of Electoral Math

To make a somewhat obvious point about this topic that somehow still needs to be made today, when a top law firm is overwhelmingly male, there's no need for male-specific networking opportunities. The law firm itself, and its peers, make one big male-dominated networking opportunity. It takes work to fight against a lot of built-in biases, that, while more subtle than discrimination of years past, tend to push women out of high-powered jobs or keep them from getting them in the first place.
