<p>That may be the concern, but where is the data to support that concern? And, more importantly, where is the critical thinking to analyze that data? Are females getting pushed out by the faculty powers-that-be, or by other male undergrads, or are there other issues in play, such as a possible mismatch due to the female admissions boost to begin with?</p>
<p>Don’t forget, many/most undergrad Eng/Stem majors attend large, public Unis, where one (male or female) is only a number (student ID) and test scores. It’s hard to claim bias, subtle or otherwise, when all that matters is the mid-terms and finals. (Unless not having enough female faculty member is considered inherent “bias” which then trickles down to the undergraduate population.)</p>
<p>At least in my state, the public college advising or “mentoring” is just uniformly bad, for both males and females.</p>
