Yes, I do think it’s a concern for the main reason that it will be bad for society if there are significantly more women then men who are educated. This was bad when the imbalance was the reverse. Also, I think it’s harmful academically and culturally on a co-ed campus if you want to be able to hear many viewpoints (and I’m a proud Newcomb alumna!!!). Finally, college is also about expanding your social circles and new personal experiences. If you’re a heterosexual or bi female - which the majority of Tulane students are at this point, there are fewer options. The NYT article had quotes from women at other schools saying that the gender imbalance at their schools was making the men cocky and entitled. I can see that.
