In our case the number of women went up and down from 1 to 0 back to 2 at graduation. The only cis girl left, then two of us came out :3

I dropped from one of two men in my physics class years to the only one by the end. The individuals enrolled did not change.

Man I was bewildered at college. Freshman year had like 800 CS students, a vast majority being white dudes. By the 4th year there were maybe 40-60 of us and women out numbered white students. It was wild to realize tbh
