The co-edu cational institutions enroll more than 10,000 more men than the in stitutions exclusively for men, and also enroll 4,000 and upwards more women than the 13 colleges for women of the same rank as the colleges for men, added to the 132 female colleges and seminaries which do not have a course of study equal to the average college course for men.
