Re: Are all girl FIRST team counterproductive to the philosophy of FIRST?

You know Kim, your reply there seems to go along quite well with something my students said way back in the beginning... the specifically asked for male mentors, in order to allow female mentors to work with other teams. They felt that girls in mixed-gender teams could benefit more (ie get inspired more) by having strong female mentors, while our all-girls team wouldn't necessarily need that sort of example in front of them - the seniors on the team would always be there as the inspiration for the Freshmen, and just the nature of being an all-girls team meant that it was easier for girls to be involved with all aspects of the team than on a mixed-gender team.
