...does my experience last spring relate to this year’s male-dominated UC ballot? After all, this election may simply be an anomaly, considering that last year, two of the three UC vice presidential candidates were women. However, the connection that I see between the two occurrences is in how campus figures have reacted to the lack of women running for the UC.

Event organizers said the fair aimed to encourage a community more welcoming to women than they said was currently the case at Harvard. “We wanted to create more opportunities at Harvard to get more...
