[Year 12 IPM] Go Girls Program

Zach, it was their phrasing not mine!

As for the "Cleo magazine" comment, that's a bit stereotypical. I suppose
that all the computers will be pink as well ... and every handout relates
back to Barbie as well?

I am all for raising the numbers, I am just giving feedback from the girls
at my school.
