I would say that about 70 percent of the graduates are aiming for a pro career. Then I attended this school 20 years ago; out of 100 in the class only ten or so were women. For the last two semesters (2001, 2002) I was surprised (and delighted) to find the women make up about 70% of the photography student body. The department chairman notes this number has been steadily growing for the last 5 years or so.
