      Thank you so much for your wonderful presentation on September 16th. I was very much pleased with the outcome of the event. I have been the MIT Women's and Gender Studies Program Coordinator since December of 2007. Your event, has been (by far) one of my most successful in the past 10 months. Not only did we exceed the space capacity for 32-141 but we also exceeded our average number of attendees. 32-141 seats 95 people and over 140 people attended. An average of 45 people usually attends WGS events and your lecture brought out a whopping 140+.
