I guess there wasn't room for engineering...
Q: What do engineers use for birth control?
A: Their personalities.

[Moondog]

1. There are virgins in college?

Who knew? In the name of all that is holy, or whatever, why? How did this happen?

:shrug:

[mwooldri]

18. It is my guess that a significant number of the UK population...

... used a Virgin to get to college.

[Scout]

27. yes .... so?

what's the big deal?

[Moondog]

34. Oh, nothing.

It's just that it is such a change from when I was an undergrad (late 60s through early 70s). Times change, and I'm showing my age I guess. It's not better, or worse, it's just different. Didn't mean to offend ....

[Scout]

36. ok, thanks, sorry i jumped at you! n/t

[tigereye]

2. what's with the anthro and neuroscience folks?

:rofl:

[bluedigger]

15. We're all sluts!

:rofl:

[tigereye]

35. that's interesting - the ones I know are very interesting women, but

rather discriminating about their partners... :D

[bluedigger]

39. I represent the other side.

But you're right. The girls did play good defense!:banghead: :rofl:

[tigereye]

41. and silly too!

:hi:


well, one of my anthro friends did comment about some of her (male) profs' fondness for large breasts, so there you are!

[ZombieNixon]

3. Some surprises here.

Biology, for example. For a science that can get very focused around sexual reproduction, they sure don't seem to get a lot of first hand experience.

Also, I'm surprised to see computer science so low.

[Haole Girl]

4. Interesting

I've never seen that.

[femmocrat]

5. Well that figures... Studio Art at "0"!

All those nude models must be titillating! ;)

[NJmaverick]

6. Yeah I was wondering why engineering was missing

[MrScorpio]

7. I'm an artist

Of course we majored in booty


Duhhh!

[Wapsie B]

8. By my recollection music majors would be giving Studio Art a race to the bottom.

Or top, depending how you look at it. :evilgrin:

[DarkTirade]

10. Yeah, I was 'bout to ask where music major was on there...

Ironically, when I was all depressed about being single as a music major was when several voice majors suddenly took notice of me... I guess being a depressed violinist made them think I was all deep and artsy and crap. :P

Of course most of my being depressed came from the fact that I was a violinist... and therefore surrounded by attractive women. Who all thought of me as 'one of the girls'. D'oh.

[Wapsie B]

20. I know all about the depressed artsy male being a woodwind major.

It was the same thing with me, one of the girls, until I came to my senses and noticed the attention paid to me by several women in my midst.

[AwakeAtLast]

12. I resemble that remark

Music Major here! :hi:

[Wapsie B]

17. Me too!

:hi:

[MineralMan]

33. Music majors would be in the minus numbers.

They all lost it in High School on band or chorus trips.

[TrogL]

37. Hey, I was gonna post that - and do it by orifice

[PVnRT]

9. Pssssst.......Wellesly doesn't have an engineering program

Notice that the majors towards the right end of the graph are those that actually have to study and do loads of homework. Just saying...

[pokerfan]

16. Thanks

I would not have known that.

[PVnRT]

23. I didn't either until I looked it up

Why did I look it up? Because I'm an engineer and anal.

[greendog]

31. Studio Art majors don't don't study or have homework?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[I Have A Dream]

42. Computer Science is a difficult major. nt

[ghostsofgiants]

11. My department (political science) needs to get laid, apparently.

[sasquatch]

13. That's the place to be, even with all of the bad things that happened there

it's still well worth attending.

[Inchworm]

14. The PolySci guys are all lying

learning the spin :P

:hi:

[mwooldri]

19. Male engineering students' virginity rate may be high...

but the female engineering student virginity rate was not.

No computer science recorded there either.

[XemaSab]

22. That was my thought

the 8.5% of math majors that are women are helping the hottest 8.5% of the men out... :hide:

[sasquatch]

43. Hey a hot female bookwarm is a jewel to have in your life

[BreweryYardRat]

21. Thankfully, I'm not one of the 62% of virgins in my major.

Mind you, I'm not getting laid on a regular basis, either, but every so often is a lot better than nothing.

[TheMightyFavog]

24. Mathmatics the highest?

Well, that's not representative of the math majors I knew in college.

[pokerfan]

38. Only because Wellesley doesn't have an engineering program

:P

[Jokerman]

25. Good thing I lost my virginity BEFORE I became a poli-sci major.

This may also explain why I had a thing for art school girls in college.

[Dr. Strange]

26. Yes! Once again mathematicians top the charts!

All hail the mathema--

Wait a minute, what the hell? Aw, shit!

[undeterred]

28. Whats with the "undeclared"?

How many years into college can you still be undeclared?

[mix]

29. i was lucky

I hung out with the Anthro crowd.

[joeybee12]

30. This is BS! Only half of French majors are virgins!

it's against the law to major in French if you're a virgin!

[MineralMan]

32. I don't see music in there. I guess that would be in minus

numbers, since they all lost it in High School on band trips. WooHoo!

[Unvanguard]

40. Wellesley is single-sex. That might mess with the data a bit. n/t

[Q3JR4]

44. Well I happen to like mathmaticians

and those in the hard sciences. Nerds are yummy. :9

Q3JR4.
Speaking as a man with a degree in physics, It pains me to see the lack of "physics" on the chart.

Also no matter what they tell you, physicist ≠ engineer.

Also also, those numbers wouldn't have really applied to me anyway since I lost my virginity before college.

[armyowalgreens]

45. I am a major of the third and tenth highest percentage.

I don't know how that works out for me...
