I say heck YES!
There NEEDS to be more females in the Technology Programs..because:
- My findings revealed that the men had first dibs over 20 years ago and signed on at the Universities while we were at home taking care of the house and kids. But look, we are in a new millennium and women have been gradually making their mark in the computing and technology fields.
- I can name at least 4 vitally important reasons why women MUST be in the computing sector, aside from that women are better managers.
- 1st, women who seek financial aid and college funding will find more options to pay for college courses in the Tech field (STEM) then any other program available so make sure to ask your financial aid officers to give you the run down on the "techies" bonuses for 'them' to pay you.
- 2nd, Higher skills means higher pay girls! You could be shopping at Saks and not pay less!
- 3rd, working conditions include lots of domestic and global traveling being put in the 5 star hotels and 1/3 of the work force is comprised of women therefore making you higher in demand in a better position to negotiate salary!
- 4th, it would increase the qualified labor pool that the United States depends on to drive the innovation and product development in IT that is key to the U.S. economy!

Great blog post very informative. You make a valid point and a persausive argument. I only wish I was more intersted in computers and IT. Good luck with your papers.
