Education Department probing whether Yale discriminates against men

The Education Department is investigating whether Yale University discriminates against men by offering specific programs and scholarships for women.

Inside Higher Ed reported Monday that the department launched the probe last month after a student who is not affiliated with the university filed a Title IX complaint.

Kursat Christoff Pekgoz, a doctoral student at the University of Southern California, claims that women are no longer a minority in higher education and therefore Yale’s programs that specifically benefit women violate federal gender discrimination law.

Federal data show that women make up 49 percent of undergraduates at Yale. Nationally, more than 56 percent of college students were women as of last fall, according to Inside Higher Ed.

Etc..

Sounds like discrimination to me. Especially when you add male feminazis.

For 35 years, women have outnumbered men in American colleges. Federal data show that female students became the majority in 1979 and for the past decade have accounted for about 57 percent of enrollment at degree-granting institutions.

Source: Washington Post, 26 March, 2014. It's now 39 years.

Of course they discriminate against men since they bring toxic masculinity to Yale. They should discriminate against male professors, coaches, custodians, landscapers, mechanics, guards, etc. Yale should be the first college that hires any men and should phase out male students, too. Good example, Yale, be the first all-female Ivy.

Ha, ha! They're chicken to do it, but you know they'd love to.

Universities have women’s centers, but no men’s centers, women-specific advisors to the President, but no men-specific advisors to the President, and policies designed to favor women in hiring, retention, and promotion.

Departments that have more male students will do everything they can to get more female students, but departments that have more female students will not do anything to get more male students.

Administrative offices are often almost entirely women, with nothing being done to change that.

I doubt there have been any real men at Yale for decades.

AS a white, Christian, heterosexual male I do not qualify for anything.

You are, however, encouraged to pay more than your share of all taxes received.

Whether women are in the minority is irrelevant. There should be no discrimination against men.
