I went to Pomona College, which is next to Harvey Mudd, with cross-enrollment and some shared CS classes.

I think the experience you are describing is not applicable here, because Pomona and Harvey Mudd are both highly selective schools. Nobody who can't code is graduating with a CS major. Mudd in particular is pretty hardcore. When I worked with other students in CS classes at Mudd, I was always impressed by their intelligence and work ethic, that goes for any gender.

My graduating class of CS majors had more women than men, and both men and women are developers at top companies, getting PhD's from top programs, etc.

Doesnt everybody mostly think this about their school ? No one wants to be known for graduating from the school that pumps out frauds.

Thats why alot of companies prefers ivy leagues, mit, other top schools etc.
