Colleges should give more attention to engineering and arguably business to attract male students. Maybe such students will actually get jobs upon graduation. (I do wonder what a 4-year degree in "business" entails. Perhaps it could be compressed to two years.)

a curious question will be: in 50 years, when white males will be the minority in the U.S, will they receive special assistance and GOV placement?

The shortage of men undoubtedly has a great deal to do with the fact that the women have become wh@res.

And just what’s wrong with having too many women on campus?

Recruit some attractive conservative women instead of all the liberal wretches they normally let in.

A long time ago, there was a cop show mini-series that included that theme. The show was The Bakery, (I think). They had an episode set in the future where white males were now the minority and given affirmative action treatment. The non-white males resented it.

Agreed that colleges should give more attention to engineering and other hard studies. Most of the degrees offered by these particular colleges are complete crap (no engineering or business programs?!!). How many more feminist studies, sociologists, etc., do we really need?

Two points:

1: Higher education today exists to suck up federal student loans and benefits.

2: The imbalance is is why more college gals today are lesbians, at least until graduation. They just can’t get dates with suitable guys! (After graduation, they can have affairs with the married men at work.) Sad but true.

Actually 18-21 year old lib chicks are pretty hot. Plus, because they've been raised wrong they're easier to bed and they're freakier. You just want to stay away from them once they turn 22 or 23....their boobs start to sag and they start developing anger-marks on their face. Then, you go and marry a good Conservative girl and the lib chicks become lesbians.

I have talked to a couple of my black friends about this. Pretty much their attitude is that the white men had it so good for so long let them see what it's like to be discriminated against... So sorry, there will apparently be no sympathy or relief for them in this case.

However, I will include this quote from Malcolm X:

"Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it."

I have two undergrad degrees, Engineering and Business. Thank God I was smart enough to get an engineering degree (plus my two professional registrations).

When there is a shortage of men, women become more aggressive. It has always happened after wars. The women have to compete harder with one another.

That is a heck of a response to the question, grey_whiskers...

Kinda sums up some (liberal / leftist) people's feelings, unfortunately...

The real issue is the feminization of schooling, including k-12. Very little of intellectual substance happens in schools and colleges today outside of engineering and hard science. The k-12 education establishment today ensures that very few students will have the skills to go into those fields.

So, young men having had their fill of feminized schooling by the end of high school (assuming they don’t drop out), are certainly not going to sign up for more of it at an outrageous cost when the only degrees in reach are worthless. Engineering and science are out of the question because the femininists and their beta male friends have destroyed the math curricula and science in k-12 (reading, too).

But, at least everyone knows really important stuff like who Gloria Steinem and Harriet Tubman were...
