Have you ever been encouraged to run for a leadership position? Or discouraged? Who communicated this to you (another student, professor, etc)?

I was upset about some stuff happening on campus and became vocal. Frustrated with the ways things were a professor suggested that I take a leadership position in my house to change things and work from the inside.
Welcome to the Women & Leadership at Vassar blog. This blog is a project started by Strong House in attempt to create dialogue about the ways in which women engage in leadership roles on campus.
In the last three years...
0 of 3 VSA Presidents have been women.
8 of 14 VSA Exec members have been women.
6 of 26 House Presidents have been women (and 3 of them had to be women from Strong)!
2 of 12 Class Presidents have been women.
Did you know?
Since 2002-03, only 21 of 62 house presidents have been women
Of the last 10 VSA Presidents, 4 were women, 6 were men. Most recently, there are have been five consecutive male VSA presidents.
Of 53 VSA Exec Board members, 25 were women, 28 were men.
