Are you suggesting that there is discrimination against men?

Or are you suggesting that Title IX is itself a factor in the college attainment gap between men and women?

I believe neither is the case. I think other factors are at play here, although I’m not an expert and willing to be persuaded.


The current model of "equity" as in Title IX is currently defined based on difference in outcome implying structural/systemic discrimination. There is now a difference in outcome going the other way. Thus, one must conclude systemic discrimination the other direction by the same rules.

This difference in outcome was the only hard evidence that justified creation of programs that give women an advantage, such as women-only mentorship programs, scholarships, and career counseling.


Even at Caltech?
