You may not be aware, but these days there is basically affirmative action for male college students, at least at elite colleges - they are even exempt from Title IX gender discrimination wrt to admissions. Basically so many women were applying - and qualifying over men - that universities have lowered the bar for men to get in, lest they become even more female than the 50+% women they sometimes are. Cite: https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2015/07/30/... One key quote: “Were Brown to accept women and men at the same rate, its undergraduate population would be almost 60 percent women instead of 52 percent—three women for every two men.” |
