Actually, that's one reason to support public education at the college level. We need more good state school engineering departments. More women will get into engineering, because of exposure, high salaries, and employer demand. Likewise, Male engineers will actually meet women. At Pitt, where I went for undergrad, the count for Computer Engineers/Electrical Engineers was something like 525. Only 38 were women. On the other hand, if you were well adjusted, you had no problem meeting women outside the engineering building.
