It seems as though video games are blamed for lot of things in our society. Violence, sexism, lack of motivation, social isolation… the list goes on, according to multitudes of research over the years, although none of it has ever been proven as totally conclusive. Here is a new hypothesis. As college enrollment drops, the majority of students enrolling and completing degrees are women, according to data from the National Student Clearinghouse. New research on the reason for the imbalance cites men who say they don't consider a degree a good return on their investment, yet some researchers are making claims that video games and a lack of father figures are other factors as well.
