At the very least we need to see enrollment rates per social class and college type. It's very likely the article makes news out of a mundane thing that boils down to a new counting scheme.
- pc86 6y agoI'm curious what makes you confident that it's a non-issue and just related to how we count things. I've heard many reports over the past 10 years or so that women are going to college at a higher rate than men. Anecdotally, my graduating class was almost 60% female over a decade ago.
- frongpik 6y agoIt's just general distrust to media companies that like to invent news. I don't know much about the situation with colleges in the us otherwise.
- s1artibartfast 6y agoIf 3 women are enrolling and graduating for every 2 men in the US total, it is hard to understand how this could be a counting scheme. Understanding what social classes and colleges are most impacted might help determine the root cause, but wouldn't negate the totals.
