"An important liberal-arts ideal is 'Know thyself,'" says Wabash president Andrew Ford. "Sometimes you can do that best, or more comfortably, among your own gender, and we offer that choice...

...frequently. "We have absolutely no chance of winning," he says. "I hope we can beat a couple of the crews who beat us last year.
