Following the Giants
Over the past three decades, undergraduate enrollment in the United States has experienced significant shifts. What began as a steady climb through the 1990s and 2000s crested around 2010, only to reverse course in the years that followed. The trends vary by gender and institutional type, but the overall picture is clear: fewer students are enrolling in college today than a decade ago — and the gaps between male and female students has widened.
