Walk into a public relations class at the UW and you’ll see an example of a growing trend in higher education: there are 28 girls, and only 5 guys. At college campuses nationwide, the number of women is growing while the number of men is shrinking.
At the UW, there are 54 percent women to only 46 percent men. It might seem like a small difference, but remember there are 28,000 undergraduates.
