Are they also the producers/composers/technicians?
When I was studying musictech, the first year had about 50 students (divided between musictech and audiodesign (which is more like studiotechnology)).
Iirc the females were:
- one small muppet'esque girl driving a hummer car :P
- one nice looking violin player brunette who tragically died just after the study
- one ugly ET'esque girl from Russia, living in Berlin, having a temporary room in Amsterdam
- one nice salestype blonde who actually belonged in the next year
So, that makes 8% female in the first year.
The muppet left during year two, and in year three some tuba-playing (and fragile when receiving bad critics on her homework) girl joined (can you imagine? a semi-nice blonde playing a TUBA! :P). So we're still having 4 females. Meanwhile a number o'guys left (being too stupid, other interests, touring with a band, etc.) so the relative number of females would rise ofcourse, but iirc there were never more than four of 'em.
Now, I don't know how these figures are for code-studies. Ofcourse, information technology is a large area, and only a part of it is actual code.. anyone who can say something about the number of coding females in those classrooms?
(Iirc there was actually one asm-coding female in the PC demoscene.. :P)
