I'm Sky Galloway and this is No Mercy, No Malice. What's the new luxury item? Marriage. Marrying Up and Marrying Down, as read by George Hahn.

This post was written by Richard Reeves. A dramatic reversal has taken place on college campuses. Once male-dominated, they are now populated largely by women. In the early 1970s, about three in five students were men. Now it is the other way around. There are 2.5 million fewer male than female undergraduates. There is an even bigger gender gap in master's degrees. Does this matter?

After all, the massive educational advance of women and girls is rightly seen as a cause for celebration rather than lamentation. Given that men still out-earn women, there's an argument to be made that women need to out-learn men, just to keep up in the labor market. I think it does matter. For one thing, it highlights how the K-12 educational system fails boys.

Kudos to those governors like Wes Moore in Maryland and Spencer Cox in Utah, who have noticed. Even when men do enroll in college, they're much less likely to get a degree. Too much male talent is being left on the table. This is why 30 or so institutions have already joined a new initiative I'm helping lead. The Higher Education Male Achievement Collaborative.

193.136 - 218.546 George Hahn

But there is one thing we can stop worrying about. That the college gender gap is reducing marriage rates. This is a common concern and for good reason. There is pretty strong evidence for what anthropologists call female hypergamy, which is a fancy way of saying that women typically want to marry men of at least equal or preferably higher status.
