The trustees of Deep Springs voted last year to take it coed. That decision, I think, is now in court with the trustees on the losing end of the vote and some alumni suing to block it. They say school’s founding documents require it to be single sex and the trustees have no legal power to change that.

Just did some follow-up research and you're correct.

What a shame. There seems to be no regard anymore for a founder's wishes. I guess you could call this a microcosm of America today.
