Not what you have been told, is it? 

Who is in the minority here? How should that minority group be treated?

Chart of the Day (above) is based on recently released data from the Department of Education that includes college degrees for the 2016-2017 academic year and shows that women have earned more than 57% of bachelor’s degrees for the last 18 years starting in 2000. Further, women have earned a majority of bachelor’s degrees for the last 36 years starting in 1982. Not shown here, but women previously earned a majority of associate’s degrees starting in 1978 and a majority of master’s degrees starting in 1981. By 2006, women earned a majority of doctoral degrees and the “takeover” of higher education by women was complete for degrees at all levels! But instead of declaring “victory” and moving on, many women are still claiming “victim status” in higher education with the need for special gender preferences in the form of funding, scholarships, centers, commissions, fellowships, awards, programs, and initiatives that are only available for women, or are primarily for women.
