Tell Us Your Good Deed:
I'm a volunteer tutor. I worked with both immigrants learning English and mentally disabled high school students. It's always a joy.

Why are you participating?:
I'm participating because I want people to think about the stereotypes, and how they conflict, and how the same person can have different labels. For example, I walk fast, like a New Yorker, but I'm not stereotypically aloof with strangers. I have the intelligence people naturally expect of an engineer, but are surprised to find in a christian (which I find strange because I know so many christian engineers). I'd also like people to stop telling me that women aren't interested in math and science.
