I am a complete gender nerd. Show me a culture that's got some basis in gender, and I wanna know more. Wells College is a lovely liberal arts college in upstate New York's Finger Lakes region. For 136 years, it had been a women-only institution. On October 2, 2004, Wells College announced that it would admit men in autumn 2005. Ms. magazine covered it well. Sociologically speaking, Wells is a goldmine of information and politically speaking. Wells could become the earth-shaking epicenter of a consciously gendered culture. There's never been one of those before, ever.
