Another pet topic around here. A few pieces of info and anecdote overheard lately.

My nephew is starting as a first year med student at a DC-area med school. Reportedly, the class size is something like 170, and only 40-some of those students are male. I haven't independently verified that, but that's what he told me.

I have been in the same ward now for 11 years, and we have another med school in the ward boundaries. Each year, we get a new crop of students who move in to our ward to start med school. Those are arriving now, and typically I would say 5-8 new families move in each year. Over my 11 years, there has been 1 student of the approx 50-80 students in our ward who was female. I wonder what happened to her.
