When I was at college, in a mainly male course (Mech Eng) our professors had already solved all social issues by establishing links with the Speech Therapy department (or maybe they made their first move, I don't know). Therefore all parties and social events were joint Mech Eng/Speech Therapy. It worked really well! Tho' I guess this is only really possible at a college that makes an effort to be 50:50 across its entire student population.
