Go to Post I think we're doing pretty well . . . but I will never, ever say that "we are ahead of schedule." It's a curse. :D - Éowyn [more]

Re: Women in Technology (WIT) Partners with FIRST

Hurray! Congratulations! This is the kind of partnerships I want to see more of! There just isn't enough support for girls/women in FIRST. Though we all know the examples of all-girl teams and that girls can work just as hard (if not harder) than the boys, it is great to see an organization reaching out to the girls.
