Re: HELP: GIRLS AND ROBOTICS

Our team is always at least half female. We've always had female presidents but the building roles and similar leadership positions have always been filled by guys. We can't seem to interest girls enough to build robots, I'm not sure how it happens this way...

Re: HELP: GIRLS AND ROBOTICS

Last year we only had 3 girls, 1 graduated. But this year like magic we had so many girls that we had to create a whole new team of them. Now there are about 10-20 girls on the girl team and about 2-3 on the main team.

Re: HELP: GIRLS AND ROBOTICS

We were just counting today - 7 girls, 20 guys. Which is a big change, since last year they were half and half.
