Re:Possibly not a problem with CS itself.. (Score 1)

Well, I'm not sure of large-scale numbers, but as a junior in college right now, and taking the intro comp sci class that all CS majors have to take, I overheard my TAs talking to a female freshman in the class about how 80% of the CS majors at my school (Rice University) are male. At the same time, there are more female premeds here at Rice. I don't know if that tells you exactly where they are, but that's the way it is here. And, at least here at Rice, I have noticed that there are more women in the liberal arts. I'm also taking a sociology class (Medical Sociology - required for my 2nd major), and in a class of ~80, there are about 12 males. FYI, I'm a biochemistry/policy studies (focus in health and medical policy) double major, and the CS class I'm taking is a requirement in my major, but I'm not majoring in CS. just some observations.
