I have a B.A. Psych... I agree -- psychology, economics, sociology, these are not sciences! (throw meteorology into the mix, that is more like astrology).

Publishing of papers, number-crunching based on correlations and peer reviews do not a science discipline make.

Pat.

Brown-nosing a bit eh? Rachel may be a fine DBA, but a scientist, I think not. I also have a problem with social scientists A hard science bias I not only admit, but proclaim. You forgot to mention Heddy Lamar. Few would call her dorky. Her work on frequency-hopping communications is well recognized.

I'd venture a guess that if it were a requirement there would be fewer girl scouts. Girls join girl scouts to have fun, and I think that they would perceive any requirement as an impediment to their fun, especially something "dorky".

I agree that it is an image thing. We need some cool female scientists in the spotlight, don't we?

Dorky rules :)

It's sad that there isn't a requirement for the science/math activities in the Girl Scouts. The problem is that society in general doesn't show images of science as being "cool" and definitely doesn't show images of women as scientists. Or at least, not enough images.
