The following recommendation was made by the president and administrative staff of Grove College, a private institution, to the college's governing committee."Recently, there have been discussions about ending Grove College's century-old tradition of all-

The argument above is written by administrative staff of Grove college suggesting that the college should sustain their tradition of all-female education. The author based his/her argument on the high percentage of student objection to break the tradition that was extracted from 2 surveys. Although the argument seems cogent at first glance, getting accurate on it reveals that there are some questions that authors ignore them which their answers can make some obscure aspects of the argument clear and can strengthen it.

First, it should be asked that does the current morale that exists in college environment is consequence of all-female policy? What is the norms and values in related region? Are cooperation and morale lower in other places that both genders exist for example in other colleges in the same area that offer coeducation . It is possible that this atmosphere is due to their social values. Further, Is there any other male person –not student, employees or staffs- in the college? How do students will interact them and are female staffs performance better than males?.They are questions that should be considered to conclude that through all-female education morale will be preserved in college.

The other question is that, does alumnae opposing, mean they will abort supporting college? What is their purposes of patronizing and supporting college? Is it only because they want to show their advocacy of all-female tradition? Or they want to improve other students educational quality and their available facilities? If so, it will not be likely that they leave supporting the college if coeducation will be committed.

Also, the author did not present the essential statistics and information from the surveys that are needed to evaluate the surveys, effectively. For example, the surveyed students include what proportion of all the students? Are they different in their study field , city, cultural base or not? Maybe they were not a significant part of students. A small sample group can invalid the extracted result from surveys, also, if all of them were from similar categories, so it is probable that most of them have the same attitude and in conclusion the right outcome will not be obtained. So, it could not be mentioned that the policy should be continued because majority of students advocate it.

To summarize, it can be seen that answer of above questions could made the argument more clear and dispel the fallacious points that are in authors logic to conclude.
