Women in IT
>
Well, this is a really interesting article on how well women are being represented in the Web Design and larger IT work force. It is interesting to me as more of a part timer in the industry that so little data is available in regards to the profession. I wonder what can be done about the said phenomenon…
At Chestnut Hill College, the computer science department is roughly, I would say, 85% male. In High School, I had a total of 2 girls with me in my high computer classes (as in programming, not touch typing). What does all that mean? I don’t know. I certainly wasn’t aware of any gender based discrimination, it just seemed that my female companions were not interested.
hmm…
