Two pieces of important and good news have come out recently about the state of, and opportunities for, the participation of young women in computer science. The first is the participation of women in the 2019 computer science advance placement exams; the second is the announcement of this year's Aspirations in Computing awards program organized by the National Center for Women & Information Technology. Together, they are an indication of how far we've come as a community in recent years in embracing the opportunities for young women to study computer science in high school, and in providing encouragement and support to continue these studies in college.
