Women make up majority of Carnegie Mellon first-years

@Coloradomama , is this what you’re trying to describe, that won’t be remedied for 50-100 years?

“The literature on women in CS in the United States painted a bleak picture, and according to current data—with few exceptions—it continues to do so. Undergraduate women across the country report being told by their male peers that they do not belong in the field and are often accused of stealing the places of more qualified men; the women report feeling uncomfortable, unqualified, and isolated. The experiences of many women students in CS, including the past experiences of some women at Carnegie Mellon, made for discouraging reading. The odd woman who entered the field and had happy experiences appeared to be an anomaly, an exception to the rule.” (Kicking Butt in Computer Science: Women in Computing at Carnegie Mellon University)
