Another Women?s College Will Admit Men - Inside Higher Ed

As the president emerita of a college which we took coeducational during my tenure and since then as a consultant to colleges becoming coeducational, among them Lesley, Immacualta and Chestnut Hill, I commend Bettye Coward and her board for their wisdom and courage in making the difficult decision to take Blue Mountain coeducational. Although all of us presidents and boards who have done so struggled with that tradition altering decision, our colleges have prospered as a result of it. Most of us saw it as a mission expansion to include men , not as a change in mission; and the rich traditions of the women’s college have been carried forward into the coeducational college. In every case among my own and the colleges for whom I have consulted, enrollment has risen dramatically putting the colleges in far better fiscal shape then they were as women’s colleges. And in all cases the alumnae have either immediately or soon after embraced the change. Losing another women’s college can be sad but necessary as young women talk with their feet. My best to President Coward and her board in this transition year.Anne Deming, Ph.D. President, Anne Deming & Associates LLC, Wilmington DE
