Re: Girls are still undermined?
I think this used to be a problem with the TechnoKats. I think girls think that robitics is such a "guy's thing" that they don't want to deal with it. I'm glad to see that there have been a few girls on our team that have challenged that predisposition. The Technokats have "Girls nights at the shop" where there are no boys allowed except for adults. And this Wednesday (I believe) we will have local girl scout troops come to our shop. I think it's a great thing our team is doing to try to get girls interested. I think it's sad that robotics seems to be mainly guys.
