Does this mean my boy has a better chance of getting into college?

A new partnership between nearly two dozen colleges and universities aims to tackle the steep decline in male enrollment — an effort that is very much needed, two scholars told The College Fix.

In a stark shift in higher education demographics, men are now earning two of every five college degrees, and are more likely than women to drop out of college. These trends are highlighted in a recent report from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville and the American Institute for Boys and Men.

With college enrollment dropping and men making up the vast majority of that decline, the university and institute decided to launch the Higher Education Male Achievement Collaborative in October.

This is not new, not a real news source, and premised on some pretty sexist and toxic stuff. So, no.

There are more spots in colleges than there are students attending. Unless your son has a seriously disqualifying mark on his "permanent record," and frankly maybe not even then, there is a college he can attend.

It all depends on what type of college he’s seeking.

The vast majority of colleges in this country have very high acceptance rates and are not difficult to get into.

Cast a wide enough net and he’ll be more than fine.

Spent some time reading the article comments. A bunch of people with serious issues is the kindest way to put things.
