Subject: African American Gender BALANCE in Class of 2011
Perry,
In checking the 145 African American students committed to enrolling
at Harvard College this fall (September 2007), I was elated
(positively shocked) to see that the numbers are 73 FEMALES and 72
MALES!!! That is very, very different from the typical 60% female
and 40% male ratios (or worse) we have seen in the past.
This is NEWSWORTY; hence, I share it with you and will try to analyze
what we did this past year and try to replicate it (smile).
Best regards,
David
