Professor Fredrickson will appear via Zoom to discuss the challenges faced by working mothers and the gaps in the law that leave them less protected than many other groups in the labor force. Time will be reserved at the end for student questions. 

This convening is open to all invitees who are compliant with UChicago vaccination requirements, and is a mask-optional. We strongly encourage unvaccinated individuals and those preferring masks to do so. Participants are expected to adopt the risk mitigation measures appropriate to their vaccination status as advised by public health officials or to their individual vulnerabilities as advised by a medical professional. Public convening may not be safe for all and carries a risk for contracting COVID-19, particularly for those unvaccinated. Participants will not know the vaccination status of others and should follow appropriate risk mitigation measures.
