The word Co-ed is sometimes used to mean a female student at a co-ed university so?

Question

what would a male student be called?

Answer 1

A male student is just a male student, as far as I know.

Co-ed means mixed gender, so female students were called that in places that had previously been male-only.

Answer 2

i just need the points

Answer 3

a co-ed...

Answer 4

Co-ed means co-education, usually referring to a school where male and female students study together rather than a 'single' school meaning only females or males in that school.

Answer 5

The term is out-dated. It harks back to the days when male institutions were opened up to females. So females, being the exception to the rule, received an exceptional classification - Co-ed. At a college such as Vassar or Smith, I imagine that the male students would receive that appelation.
