STEM Student's TikTok Shows Male Classmates Interrupting

"Some of us girls have the top standings in the program, and no matter how experienced we are, none of the men seem to take us seriously," McDonnell told BuzzFeed News. Earlier this week, as she was on a video call for a commercial underwriting group project, she began recording because her male classmates were repeatedly interrupting and dismissing her ideas. At first, she said, she only meant to send the video to a friend and another woman in the program. But she watched the video back and thought it was such a great example of "how often this happens to women in a male-dominated field," so she posted publicly on her TikTok on Tuesday. There, it quickly went viral, and it's now been viewed over 2.4 million times. "Live footage of a woman in STEM," she captioned the video. "This happens on a daily basis," she said.

Becoming an International Aid Worker. An Experienced Professional Explains How It's Done by Matthew Bolton I have an incredible job. Initially as a volunteer and later as a consultant to international nonprofit aid agencies, I have worked in ten countries, including Bosnia and Iraq. I have worked alongside a former Marxist guerrilla, arranged financing for landmine clearance, helped organize relief convoys to conflict zones, talked with some of the poorest people in the world, and watched international diplomats dancing to folk music in a garden surrounded by minefields.
