If you ask me, it's the NIT that's a big joke!
The decision to make WVU an all girls' school is based on the belief that single-sex education can provide a more focused and supportive learning environment for girls, as well as promote gender equality in education.
No, current male students will not be forced to leave WVU. The transition to an all girls' school will happen gradually, and current male students will have the option to complete their education at WVU or transfer to another institution.
The curriculum at WVU will be adjusted to cater to the specific needs and interests of female students. This may include incorporating more courses on women's history and issues, as well as providing opportunities for hands-on learning and leadership development.
There will be no changes to tuition or financial aid for female students. All students, regardless of gender, will continue to have access to the same financial aid opportunities and scholarships.
The change to an all girls' school will likely result in a shift in the campus community. There may be new student organizations and events specifically for female students, and the overall campus culture may become more focused on promoting gender equality and empowering women.
