I'm not sure this is a valid concern - the past couple of decades has seen a surge in students attending college, and presumably in roughly equal proportions.

  If the surge was in roughly equal proportions, you wouldn't expect to see a decline in the share of degrees going to women in almost every reported major, with fairly weak increases in the few exceptions, unless those exceptions were by far the most common majors. Its not an impossible explanation (there's certainly a lot more than the presented data needed to make any firm diagnosis), but its not an explanation which seems likely based on the data presented.
