One of our greatest joys at WiLS is hearing our members tell the stories of the big and important work they are doing – interesting new projects or initiatives, or even interesting and new approaches to old projects.

This month, we interview Kelly Kroes, WISPALS Consortium Coordinator at Gateway Technical College and current WiLS Chair. Read more
