[net.general] Women in computing -- undergraduate registration problems

craig@dcl-cs.UUCP (Craig Wylie) (02/26/86)

Has anybody else noticed a sharp drop in the number of Women applying
to study CS ?

Here at the University of Lancaster the percentage is down to under 10%
(on a good day).

We are currently examining ways of rectifying this problem, any hints
from others would be most welcome.


Followup to net.followup as we only seem to receive this newsgroup when it
cross-posted.

Craig.
