I think whether true or not, this will only ever be an anecdotal observation. The same ideological forces that dominate academia, and are responsible for what you describe, will ensure no data is ever available to support your hypothesis.

How come no one has run a study to ask men, in particular, why they are leaving?

You haven't seen that data because that study is not politically popular so it will never get published.

Instead this article averages men and women and sort of goes: "well, college students arent going."

The data clearly shows men are leading the way.

Why would men be quitting more than women?
