The number of students who enter college is becoming more and more female. Should we be concerned if the degree percentage gets to 66 percent female and 34 percent male?

Evidently in the US these will be the numbers in a few years.

I think this is an excellent trend. If guy's don't see the value in higher education or they're simply not motivated to study in school, then they can spend their careers working under female supervisors, with limited promotional opportunities.

Don't blame the females for being hard working students, with career ambitions of their own--

It is just the pendulum moving.
Part of the equal opportunity evolutionary process is that the pendulum will move past the center.
And eventually come back.
Short term pain, for long term gain. eg - elimination of patriarchal society.
Maybe someone will need to update the good book.

Are you worried ? πŸ˜›

The pendulum has swung, so now it is time to do for guys what they did for girls.

eladar - Opportunities are there for the guy's as well. If they don't take advantage of them, then don't blame the women if they do.

AvJoe agrees with McHill. If the guys dont take advantage, they will hopefully get out of the way.

Edit: Apologies to libs for thinking that someone 'take advantage".

Take away the extra help that girls get and make things even.

Please tell us all what extra help the girls get that men don't?
Put on your boots everyone; I'm sure it's gonna get deep in here now.

Special girls only programs, especially in STEM areas.

Education is not a zero-sum game, you jackass.

That's besides you getting the gist of it backwards, as usual.
