The Diversity in Science Carnival will be hosted at Quiche Moraine. Today is the submission deadline, but I'm sure posts submitted tomorrow (the 26th) will also be considered.
Here is the theme:
We are inviting all posts that challenge pre-conceptions and mis-conceptions of who scientists/engineers are, what they look like, how they behave, what they do, etc. A cross-disciplinary examination of this issue is encouraged and posts about everything from the merging of art and science or science and faith, to posts that highlight social life to how people from well-represented groups are strong advocates of diversity initiatives.
