VOTE TO ADMIT MEN SADDENS STUDENTS

Trustees at Mills College voted Thursday to admit male undergraduates for the first time in the school's 138-year history, triggering cries of "No, no!" from hundreds of angry, tearful female students.

"We will not accept this. We have been betrayed," said Robyn Fisher, president of the Associated Students of Mills College.

The trustees, hoping to avoid dipping heavily into the exclusive school's endowment to offset declining revenues, had been considering the move for some time. - Associated Press
