Do you really want to go with this argument? When I was in high school, only boys could get varsity letters. That's the tradition -- let's stick with it, OK?
I'm all for abandoning tradition that doesn't make sense anymore. If letters are meant to honor students who work hard to represent their schools in organized competitions, then robotics teams have as much claim as football, MUN, band, or debate. Even for girls.
