The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

If you’re not familiar with it, a few words about a topic that
comes up quite a bit in the book: Title IX is a US federal law
that prohibits any kind of discrimination on the basis of gender
in all institutions that receive federal funding (i.e., most
universities). It legally compels schools to respond to and
remedy situations of misconduct ranging from hostile work
environments to harassment and assault. Covered schools have
Title IX coordinators, whose job is to handle complaints and
violations and to educate an institution’s community about
their rights. Title IX has been and currently is critical to
guarantee equal access to education and to protect students and
employees against gender-based discrimination.
Lastly: the women in STEM organizations Anh mentions
in the book are fictionalized, but most universities host
chapters of similar organizations. For real-life resources on
supporting women academics in STEM, visit awis.org. For
resources that specifically support BIPOC women academics
in STEM, visit sswoc.org.
