<p>I have the 2007 edition of US News America’s Best Colleges in front of me, it was used during D2’s college selection process. Obviously data for that edition was from 2006 (i.e. three years ago) or earlier, in order to be included in this edition. </p>
<p>On the listing for Haverford College (page 246) it shows undergraduate student body: 47% male, 53% female.</p>
<p>I had recalled it to be 50-50, evidently my recollection was in error.</p>
<p>Either way, the germane point remains that Haverford’s proximity does not fully resolve the gender balance issue faced by Bryn Mawr students. And I would assume there are implications for Haverford students as well. The composite of the two schools, using the data from that book, is about 78% female, which is in substantial accord with post #5.</p>
