I have to agree that jumping on the "discrimination" bandwagon this early is a tad bit unreasonable considering how little we actually know about this program, however, the reasoning (that the petition claims was given, not a direct statement by the library available to us) is some that I have never seen before.

I'm not particularly invested in this issue, so I'm not quite willing to go looking, but has anyone found any kind of evidence supporting this kind of argument? In addition, depending on how they are gathering their data, it seems like allowing girls into the program would be a non issue, as they could simply separate the girls and boys data afterwards. Just seems a bit strange is all.
