I live a block from R-MWC, and things have been crazy for a few weeks around here. I feel badly for the women at the school, especially the freshmen. R-MWC's big admissions pull has always been getting a traditional, all-female education. I read today that the school does not have a development office. Many alumnae apparently stood up on Friday with their checkbooks and said, "If you'd asked for money, we would have given it." Apparently many people are upset with the president because she had said last year that they wouldn't even think about going co-ed. It's sad because there are so many great traditions at the school.

I guess the one decent thing that may come from them going co-ed is perhaps Greek life will make a comeback. I know many sororities had chapters there in the early 1900's.
