Male Colleges

Through much research I found that only four all male colleges remain in the United States. As reading through other articles I found that the number of women in college is now 56%. This increase is due to the feminist movements in the 70s that gave women the ability to reach greater education. With this number continually growing, the need for all male colleges would decrease. None the less, I'm sure the interest for most males in an all male college is relatively not that appealing. I have never been interest or understood the reasoning for gender separated colleges. To my understanding college is suppose to prepare students for the real world. I may be mistaken, but I believe in the real world, women and men are not separated. In my opinion this separation, would only contribute to the thought that men are above women. Not that all men think this way, but there are those that still have a machonistic view. Seeing the separation as the way it should be, because females are not good enough to earn the same education. I was unable to find the article about the male student that wanted admittance to an all female school. Therefore, I do not know the reasons this student had for wanting to attend an all female school. Most males might like this idea of being in a school full of women, this could be one of the reasons. But if he had a legitimate reason for wanting to attend this particular school. Such as, for educational purposes, feeling this school had the best to offer. There should be no reason to turn down an eager student wanting to expand their knowledge. As I searched for this article, I came across an article stating that Oxford college for women, would begin to allow men into the undergrad programs and as well as teachers. This change could possibly bring about good changes, an improvement to the college at hand.
