Re: HELP: GIRLS AND ROBOTICS
We have maybe 5 or 6 females on the team. I, and maybe on other actually work on the bot.
Girls love to cheer. Why not appeal to the cheerleader in us all? Most of the femme's on our team handle "team spirit", communnication, and our events. That leaves the guys, and me, to build the bot and get whatever needs to get done, done.
Personally. I've always been a female that enjoys techy stuff, computers, programming, and getting down and dirty. You need to find the kind of girls that don't mind getting a little greasy, that don't mind chipping a nail for the sake of the bot, but most importantly... Will enjoy themselves in the process. Don't go after the girls that go to school just for the social scene, etc. Go after the ones that seem mildly interested. Use the buddy system ^_^ Gets a whole clique of chicks to join!
