Lightbulb Re: How did this happen!?!?! 7 new girls in a team of ~20

Similar to our team's case...last year there were 5 of us, and since we had no senior gals all five remained on the team til this day. Then along came 4 more out of nowhere lol... I won't deny it, i'm thrilled with the idea. At times it seems as if the guys somehow tend to "take over"...not with the intention of leaving us out of things, but in our case they seemed to want to be more influential when it comes to making decisions. In other words, i got the impression that they always got the final call.
Not that numbers are all that important, mind you...either way it pleases me to see a sudden spark of interest from new students...but an increase in female participants has always been somewhat appealing...
