All-Male

It was hard to find information about the number of all-male colleges. I found two results. One stated that there are four institutions in the U.S. that are all-male. Another said that there are 66 colleges. I think the difference is the size; institutions are very large with a good size of undergrad students, while the colleges listed were all under 2,000 students. Also, of the 66, most are Jewish Rabbinical colleges, which I believe are for studying to become a rabbi. This explains why they are so small, all male, and for the most part located around New York. The four institutions, then, are an exception. Most colleges of decent size switched to co-ed programs long ago. In an age where equality is becoming more and more important, it makes sense that most colleges would allow women. An intersting thing I found is that there are a few more all-women colleges. I suppose its easier for an all-women college to stay that way. An all-male college might be accused of sexism by not allowing women, while a women college would not recieve nearly as much pressure to allow men in. I guess an exception would be that story about the guy who wanted to enroll at an all female college, but I could not find the article about that, so I cannot really discuss it. Overall, I see no problem with the fact that a vast majority of colleges are co-ed, mostly because I cannot think of a reason for any college to not allow both genders, with the exception of schools like the rabbinical ones I mentioned earlier.
