If, on the other hand, you want engineering /without/ the "me and the boys" philosophy, come to the University of Calgary. Last year we won an award for the highest proportion of female professors for engineering schools in Canada, and my graduating class in Chemical engineering was about 25% women (maybe 30%). We still have fun the same way engineers always did, we just do it without excluding anyone anymore. :-)
