“before you go off calling white women dumber than white men”
I didn’t say that; it is officially government policy.
“But with equivalent records, colleges are now more likely to favor a male candidate to a female one.”
That is blatantly false and would be shot down in court in milliseconds; it would be ILLEGAL (unless you are skirting the issue and actually mean black/Hispanic men versus white women).
No, that is clearly the case and has been reported by various professionals working in college admissions.
The big fear is colleges getting their ratio skewed with too many women over men—at a tipping point of which they are viewed as less attractive to applicants. It is because so many more women than men are going to college that colleges are now tripping over each other to get enough men to have a reasonably close to balanced ratio.
You ought to get out more before you go spouting off that which you know nothing about.
