The article on Nancy Weiss Malkiel’s new book regarding the admission of women at Princeton was interesting and informative. It does not address, however, the broken promise made by several Princeton administrators privately to some alumni (including me) that the number of men in each class would not be reduced as the result of coeducation. Forty-seven years later, the number of men undergraduates is still lower than prior to coeducation.
