Re: HELP: GIRLS AND ROBOTICS

Yes, it is a problem. I'm on 1138, and we have only about 3 "full time" girls on the team. Girls don't realize that there is so much they can do, other than actual mechanical stuff. They can be scouts, human players, programmers, or anything else. The best thing, i'd say is to recruit more freshmen. Freshmen are new to the school and they are looking for a place to belong in high school. What's a better place than robotics? They can learn stuff about robots and meet new ppl. Our team advertises at open houses, "club nades", and other school events that show incoming freshmen what the school is about. Girls are very good at raising money for the team too. They can be the treasurers, secretaries, or public relations. They can be the spirit leaders, and can think of ways to promote the team.

k, i hope more girls will be interested soon.

Good luck!
