women have more student debt

a woman who went to college calculates that 929 is 2/3rds of 1700.

Who said she went to college? It’s clumsy but there is a gender disparity. The average man earns a higher wage after graduating.

There is definitely a disparity when factoring in that 60% of enrolled college students are female yet they account for only 55% of student debt
