Hopefully the change will not substantially alter the nurturing atmosphere for women for which the Bunting has been famous. Though some Bunting scholars have expressed concern about what the inclusion of men might do to the uniqueness of the Institute, we hope that it will not cause a drastic change...
The Bunting is wise to protect itself from legal challenges under Title IX which prevents educational institutions from discriminating on the basis of gender. The institute has too good a reputation to get entangled in a legal battle should any spurned male applicant decide to litigate.
If there is a lesson to be learned from this announcement, it is that traditions can change and grow just as institutions do. The Bunting Institute is ensuring its survival by admitting men, and by opening its doors it is opening a window to what the future of Harvard-Radcliffe...
Although it is uncertain whether the Bunting will remain a predominantly female institution, its future ideally includes a supportive community for both women and men scholars. Now, wouldn't that be nice?
We think so, and we are glad the Bunting agrees.
