Take a good look at women's colleges

Danbury, Conn., News-Times - Column

November 30, 2011


At a women's college, all the resources - from sophisticated research equipment to athletics facilities to internship and fellowship funding - are focused on and available to women students. Graduating from a women's college versus a coed public or private college or university significantly increases a woman's chances of earning a graduate degree, according to research. And women's college alumnae gave much higher effectiveness ratings to their schools for helping students than liberal arts or public flagship universities, according to the 2008 Hardwick~Day Comparative Alumnae Survey.
