dissertation advice

the natural experiment continues

this is a resumption from this post


So this time, I have two male TA's in my big lecture and this is my guess of the gender breakdown of enrolled students:
64% men, 36% women

(With two female TA's it's been 58/42.)

(I should say: enrollment turns over quite a bit, but not so much this time. Perhaps because classroom seats are so tight all around this semester, the last registrant is about #140 for a 100-seat class. Last time we almost made it to #200.)
