Response to "At Harvey Mudd College, the Ratio of Women in Computer Science Increased from 10% to 40% in 5 Years"

This article gave me a lot of insight into how a conscious effort to change a community can, over time, open up opportunities to those who would not otherwise have them. I think that the diversity of ideas that comes from a diverse group of people can have an immesurable effect on an industry as dynamic as technology. I feel excited for the progress expressed by the statistics in the article. It is significant to me that there is an effort to reduce the amount of homogeny in the industry because, as a minority member of the community, I grealy benifit from this drive.
