My grandmother, born in rural Mexico to a Spanish-Mexican mother and Native Mexican (Huichol Tribe) father, was orphaned before the age of 10, and immediately outcast due to her “Mestizo” heritage. When she lost her parents, she was pulled out of school and became an indentured servant in her home village, until she ran away at 14. This formative experience drove how she raised her five daughters.

For their Quinceaneras, each daughter received a small piece of jewelry — a traditional gift – but with a twist. My grandmother had three solid gold coins integrated into an otherwise unassuming bracelet, ensuring they always had a secret stash of cash in a pinch.

She also prioritized having her daughters educated, all with technical degrees, so that they always had something to fall back on.

At a time and in a society where women had few options, my grandmother made sure that every single one of her daughters always had a way out and a way forward as independent women; a lesson they each passed on to their daughters.

Mrs. Duffy WOMEN WHO INSPIRE US

By Hayley Strichman My high school history teacher, Ms. Duffy. I remember how nervous I was when I found out I had Ms. Duffy going into my junior year -notoriously, the hardest year and the toughest teacher. That said, not only did Ms. Duffy turn out to be my favorite teacher of all time, but also a decade-long mentor, a guidance counselor, a trusted advisor, and so much more. Beyond being an excellent teacher, Ms. Duffy was a kind person, who cared so much about her students - even outside of the classroom. I would tell her about my grandpa, a lover of history, and the EIC of the Yale Law Review. Through me, they became pen pals, and she even graded

a paper he wrote for her truth be told, she did not go easy on him. Even Grandpa Al grew to love Ms. Duffy's teachings-- so much so that we had a group lunch at my house one weekend with my entire family. How special is that. I still have the Elements of Style book on my work desk that she gifted me after I got into Syracuse. It lovingly says for all of those last-minute questions, a nod to my chronic hand-raising, after school stop-ins, and last-minute help before a paper was due. Ms. Duffy sadly passed away in February after a long illness. As so many others will...

I WILL CARRY HER LESSONS AND LEARNINGS WITH ME FOR A LIFETIME.

Inclusivity means avoiding gendered vocabulary when possible to avoid potentially negative connotations.
