@Midwestmomofboys and @lookingforward are spot on. I was at Vassar just after it went coed, and yes, even though it was still, at that time, 75% women, the men did come in and take many leadership roles.
Womens’ colleges encourage a focus on women as leaders, as successful critical thinkers and problem-solvers, offer a superb collaborative and commonly less competitive environment where they can thrive in high levels of academic challenge in majors where they might in the past have been underrepresented, where women are encouraged to find and share their collective voice and encouraged to question, to challenge with lessened social pressures and a clear focus on the promotion of womens’ education and success personally, psychologically and vocationally.
@Riversider the post above and the one about psychiatrists/psychologists personal relationships are disappointingly off the mark tonight. That’s not like you.
