I agree with most of your points - generally - but I also find it’s an issue in society when I can’t find a plumber or electrician or contractor - or insufficient recruits in the military (generally male dominated trades that mean those people aren’t going into a university).
So schools are vying for some % of a fixed pool of males - or any demographic for that matter - so should they compromise on their admissions criteria to enroll more men? Give more financial aid to males to lower cost of attendance for them? Start or enhance programs that are generally more male dominant (engineering, computer science)? Any increase in males they get to come to Tulane is at the expense/loss of some other school.
Not saying it’s not an issue, just thinking through what the solutions might look like.
Do you know if the ratio was markedly different during your years there and was it something you were conscious of or feel it impacted your experience? My understanding - which might be wrong - is that Tulane has heavily skewed Female for quite a while.
