The author suggests that the Grove College should preserve it all-females tradition education rather than admit male into its program, based on the result of a survey conducted by the student government. But carefully examination reveals several flaws in the argument in some aspects.

As a threshold matter, the author based the suggestion on the result of a survey conducted by the student government, which is not persuadable. First, since the survey of alumni is separated with of student and faculty, little information about the how the tow surveys conducted is provided, the result of the survey is not credible. Second, details and total number of the responders are not cited, perhaps student agreed with author are minorities and do not represent the opinions of all the students, so does the alumni. Thus, the result of survey is not so convincing.

Moreover, even the results is convincing, the author claims that keeping college all-female will improve morale among students and convince alumni to keep supporting the college financially, which is not substantiated by evidence quoted in the argument. Since the relationship between the tradition of all-females education and the morale is not announced and bolstered at all by ant given evidence, and no evidence indicates that alumni support the college financially for the all-female education or morale matters, it is unfairly to concludes that the keep the all-female tradition will improve the morale among students and convince alumni to keep support the college financially.

The last,,  the decision of a school should not be influenced by the opinions of student only, more factors should be taken into account as well, such as the profit, fame and the quality of education of school. To meet the male and female coexist and cooperated demand of society, it will improve effectiveness of education for school to accept coeducation, even it is not the favor of some students or alumni. As a result, it is wise from school to switch all-female education to coeducation.

To sum up, the author recommends to keep the tradition of all-female education of the Grove College based on the incredible results of a survey and the unfairly claim that keep all-female will improve the morale of students and convince the alumni keep supporting school financially which is unpersuadable and unwise if no further information is provided.
