My D was in VP. I still think it was fairly balanced…but IU has big time sports and I know that attracted some guys. So maybe a bigger pool to chose from? And I would never say the boys were behind the girls there. There were some excellent male singers…so no guys should think it would be a walk in the park there. My opinion is the good males that get hired are just as talented as the females at the top level. However fewer good male singers are overlooked compared to females. More good females will end up on the side lines. Well that’s my opinion…for what it’s worth.
