Survey of American College Students 2022: Gender Bias on Campus
Seniors and juniors were more likely than first year students and sophomores to believe that men were often discriminated against. More than 8.5% of seniors felt this way. In addition, the most religious students were more likely than others to feel that men were discriminated against by faculty or administrators of the college; A shade less than 10% felt this way versus only about 6.5% of the most secular students. Once again, political conviction made a difference; only 2.1% of very left wing students felt that men were discriminated against versus more than 14% of very right wing students.
This 74-page study presents data from a representative sample of 1186 full time American college students from 4-year colleges and universities in the USA. Students express their opinions on the pervasiveness of discrimination against men, discrimination against women, and the existence and degree of gender bias in grading. The study helps its readers to answer questions such as: which students believe faculty and administrators are biased against men? Women? How do these biases manifest themselves? The report focuses on the traditional gender distinctions; a separate report on bias against transgender students is forthcoming.
