This recent New York Times article by Alex Williams, “The New Math on Campus,” discusses how dating can be challenging when women outnumber men at college. Erm, really? It’s an interesting article, but it’s old news. When I was a student at Boston University ten+ years ago, the school was 60% female and 40% male. But in the College of Communications, where I studied, that ratio was 70% to 30% — and many of those guys were gay. Needless to say, dating was difficult.

Ironically, my husband also attended BU, but because of a small age difference (ahem) our paths never crossed.

Which did you do more of in college: studying or dating?
