It is led by female faculty and staff inside the school, not specifically the selection committee but teachers who may be teaching these students and grading them against male students, which certainly has an appearance of bias.

It's also student groups who are officially recognized and supported by the university.

But even if it's just an alumni group, why is it a good idea for it to be based on gender? I can see if there are programs that benefit ALL prospective students that would be a good thing. But programs that are gender specific? If the same thing were being done to support male students by faculty and student groups, you know as well as I do that there would be a massive outcry.

White male overweight heterosexual Catholics are probably the most victimized group in society. it's okay to attack them on any number of fronts, and they have no societal supporters suggesting that there is anything at all wrong in discriminating against them on any of their characteristics.
