It should be noted that every University in this country is very concerned about the gender gap. They instituted affirmative action to get women in science and engineering.

And in sports. One of my friends in his speech class gave a speech about Title IX and how truly evil it is. The conclusion to his speech was that the only way people would come to watch women's sports in as great of numbers as they do men's sports is if the women were naked in mud pits when they were competing. Believe it or not this didn't go over well with his left of center speech teacher.

Science and Engineering are the last refuge of male education without women. My Civil Engineering class at CMU had 37 boys and 3 girls.

I am in College right now. Being 33, I notice allot more than many of my fellow students. There are a ton of resources put into getting women into science, math and engineering. However, I have not found a single program to get men into education, English or the arts.
Being an engineering major I have notice that there are plenty of women in the freshman and sophmore classes. However by the time it comes to the junior and senior level work they have dwindled to just token numbers. he real problem is that many of the woman that were there at the freshman level took spots from men trying to get into the college of engineering.
