[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just speaking to a female engineering major who transferred out of VT after Freshman year and went on a mini tirade about her poor treatment as a female there. I was really surprised. [/quote] Most colleges are accepting more females than males (60/40) in recent years. It stands to reason that there are more females than males admitted to engineering programs. STEM admits for females have been steadily preferred and rising Consequently, it should not be surprising that certain treatment still exists, however unfortunate. [/quote] I can tell you almost certainly that Engineering programs are still admitting more males then females. They would love to reach equilibrium but its just not possible right now.[/quote] +1. More males apply but less are admitted to bring the school to gender equilibrium.[/quote]
