Re: BOREDOM****

not to get off topic jen but if you want to do something, be pushy about it. talk to the team mentor. if all fails, start flirting with the guys and get your way in. or you could play stupid and say "what's that" until you gather enough information that they HAVE to let you join.

if confronting them personally doesn't help, maybe the girls could put something together on paper reflecting your opinion in a calm manner.

don't give up!
fundraising is important but if it's not what you want to do, make sure your team knows it.

trust me, you're not alone. i used to get some sexist jokes my way when i worked on the robot but when i let them know how serious and dedicated i was, they stopped. respect is earned. =)
