"The community of women [at the Bunting] hasalways included men," Brock points out.
Plus, she says men may never form a majority ofits scholars, as the Bunting aims to continue itsmission of helping female scholars. Somefellowships, particularly those in the sciences,are funded by government money that is restrictedto woman scholars.
According to Brock, the mission of the Buntinghas changed since it was first outlined byPresident Bunting. Instead of combating "theclimate of unexpectation," the institute must nowhelp combat an atmosphere of what she calls"hyperexpectation."
And, with the Bunting poised to open its doorsto both men and women, a man who calls himself oneof the Bunting's two male alumni says theinstitute will survive the change.
Steven Schlossman, now the chair of the historydepartment at Carnegie Mellon University, workedat the Bunting between 1977 and 1979. Of the morethan 1,200 academics who have studied at theinstitute, Schlossman believes himself to be oneof only two men in the Bunting's alumni pool.
