<p>For those of you who read the Time Magazine article posted above, or who already know of these matters from other sources, I am curious of your opinions. Do you think that most women will go along with preferences for males because they want a coed college environment? </p>
<p>How much preference is acceptable and for what kind of balance of genders? If some day it means it is TWICE as hard for a woman to get in to keep the numbers of men and women in balance, would you accept that? Or is there a limit (e.g., 20% advantage but not 50%?). </p>
<p>How far do you think things will get out of balance given the trends we have seen with girls significantly and increasingly outperforming boys in schools and other college bound activities?</p>
<p>Do you think male graduates will be seen as less capable because they got affirmative action as men? Will workplaces also have to give male graduates special consideration or will the need for maximizing profits lead to more women than men over time in more occupations?</p>
