The girls in the class will figure themselves out eventually
You could go gay. That would open up a lot of back doors
Shitty jokes aside. I’m actually surprised the projector says 2020. There were quite a few girls in my class in 2019
America is a weird place, Europe is more balanced in general. Back in 2000 we had more of a 60%-40% split in computer science.
It’s super obvious to me as an American that this is somewhere in Europe. If this were in America over half the class would be Asian or Indian.
I’m from Europe (and studied CS there). My classes for some courses were about a third Indian, a third Chinese, with locals and other foreigners combined being the final third.
Of course, I’m pretty sure this photo wasn’t taken anywhere near me either. For me, the clue to that was the Cyrillic on the slides.
Tbh I’m not supprised I graduated in 2015 with a networking degree and there were 3 girls in my class group (3 or 4 courses with a lot of the same classes) which was about 150-200 students.
Conversely the nursing classes that were in the same building those numbers were flipped
I am gay and have a master’s in computer science. Believe me, there wasn’t much for me in class either.
And for me, as one of the few women in my CS program: plenty of opportunities, and plenty of douchebags.
If they were just odd they’d have a lot more success because you kind of have to be odd to be good at CS.
It’s more the rapey, incely, tendency to see women as a different and incoherent species that has the women in CS either walking around with their hackles raised all the time or quietly slipping out the back door.
Who on earth decided to leave the projector on while they took the group photo?
And why did no one in the group think to turn it off, like the guy in the middle who appears to be staring directly into the projector light.
And now you know why programmer socks are a thing.
