1944

Hey guys, are you having trouble finding a girl? Well in 1944, there were three girls for every man. Of a total enrollment of 1,747 students, 1,279 were women and only 468 were men (during World War II, the UA sent many men to fight overseas). In this picture, two freshman girls stand outside of the traditionally all-male Cochise Hall, which was infiltrated by women for the first time because of the record enrollment. Today, the girls still outnumber the boys: the UA 2002-2003 Fact Book states that of the total undergraduate enrollment, 14,898 are women, and 13,380 are men.
