It has been a great source of encouragement and extremely helpful. Keerthi, the organizer, has done a great job of including online resources and keeping us focused. Recently, she mentioned the SciPy 2016 Conference and directed me toward your message board note on Meetup.com and your mention of financial aid for the conference. I saw that the application for financial aid on the SciPy website is now closed but was wondering if PyLadies Twin Cities offers any aid for fellow Pyladies? I'm almost a year out of college so I don't think I qualify for the student pricing, but can't afford the full price of the conference. Thanks very much! Olivia
