Ironically, Perry’s latest round of filings is against MIT. Per the article, “Women are still underrepresented at MIT and account for 47% of undergraduates and only 38% of graduate students.”
I agree and now
STEM departments are blatantly discriminatory towards men. STEM departments are investing a lot of money to only help women.
Yet, “Women are still underrepresented at MIT and account for 47% of undergraduates and only 38% of graduate students.”
And you’re doing it again. Helping
Person X doesn’t necessarily hurt or discriminate against
Person Y. You’re giving no evidence that a program that would, as example, encourage more women to enroll in math and science related courses somehow discourages male students from doing the same.

These programs may violate a strict reading of Title IX in that they exist to promote the enrollment or support of women in college, but this technical definition does not demonstrate any actual effect against male enrollment or support in college.
College is very expensive without a scholarship. The majority of scholarships are awarded to women. A lot of programs are designed to help women in college, not men. A lot of men aren't getting the help they need to finish college.
If more women than men are enrolled in a given college or university, then more women than men may be receiving assistance when they land on campus. In other words, if 50% of all male and female students at USC receive financial aid, and 55% of the student population is female, then more women than men receive aid. You need to be more specific with your claim, if you want to show some sort of other percentage skew.
Past that, women still shoulder a larger share of student loan debt, and require longer time to repay that deft after college due to disparities in pay levels for same or similar positions as their male counterparts.
