I have a few daughters looking for science and engineering programs in the next few years. They’re all scared to attend schools in states hostile towards women. I get that. I’m looking for recommendations for schools in states positive towards women that have good STEM programs.

    Aren’t women safe in all states?
    It’s a bit hard to fathom as a European, so I’d love some knowledge if you’d share

      Some states have pretty strict laws regarding abortions.

      I assume that this is what the person is referring to.

          He wants to send his daughters to school in a place where they’re not only being valued for their wombs. Where they’re looked at as being equal contributors to their field of study. Where they’re provided opportunities the same as every other scholar there, and not assumed to be in college to find a husband.

          And, yes, there is a bit of “if they get into trouble will they have options?” At play I’m sure as well.

          Quit being obtuse.
