'Why are you working so hard in math? You should be getting a boyfriend.'

Cecilia Aragon is the first Latina to be made a full professor at the University of Washington's College of Engineering. The school is over 100 years old. Aragon tells KUOW's Kim Malcolm how she made it — and how she's helping the next generation of women of color go into science and math. Press play (above right) to hear their conversation.
