Nope private. An old school, it was founded as a "girls college" and used to have a great reputation, but that's been gone since the 60's. They opened the college to co-ed for a couple of years in the early 80s(?), but the student body voted to return to an all female enrollment. A once-great institution now a "lesbian school."

Unfortunately, your information is wrong. The Board of Trustees voted (for financial reasons) to open the undergrad enrollment to men in the early 90's. Given Mills' tradition of being an institution devoted to the education and the beliefs behind that education, the student body went on strike (essentially shutting down the school), and the board of trustees reversed it's decision. Men never actually enrolled (as undergraduates), as the decision was reversed in about a week. Mills does educate men in the graduate department. I'm sure you will be dissapointed to hear that not all of the women who attend this private (and therefore not funded by your precious tax dollars) institution are lesbians. They are intelligent women who care more about their education and the rights of women than drinking and sleeping around during their college years. If you would like to do more research on the first woman's college in the western united states, please refer to www.mills.edu
