<p>Vassar is a seven sister school. I graduated from there and I found it “feminist” in a nonobtrusive way. I didn’t realize that Vassar was “feminist” until I left Vassar and had to get a job. Every job I applied for (entry management level) asked me to do reception or administrative assistance work. My male roommates in NYC were never asked to test for these skills when applying for similar jobs in the Wall Street area. That’s when I realized that Vassar was feminist in that a person was looked at in terms of their skills and qualifications first there, rather than their gender. Literally: I never thought about my gender at Vassar, except in the sense of “Which bathroom do I use?” Only after I left did I realize that this was a radical environment, to consider quality or work and ideas before anything else. Sure there are campus groups that focus more explicitly on gender. I wasn’t interested, personally. </p>
