79: Suit Yourself
Rather than talk about how chemistry changed society, this episode discusses the inverse: how society changed chemistry, and for the better. We talk much about the 1973 sex-discrimination lawsuit which Dr. Shyamala Rajender filed against the University of Minnesota and its chemistry department, and how sexism pervaded many academic chemistry departments throughout the USA, even for decades thereafter.
