At the college level, some universities have instituted a policy of having a 50% ratio of women to men entering computer science, but high attrition brings the number down between 10 and 20% for graduates. And this is why "quotas" are complete and total crap. If a school has 1000 openings for their CS program and the policy says the 500 should be women and then half of them drop out that is 250 spots that could have gone to someone else. Quotas do not allow for the most qualified/capable people to get the spots. It is a shame that these policies keep going on. I understand they were designed to combat discrimination but they just traded one bias for another.
