More likely the intent is that graduates are typically a kind or type of person rather than a group.
Note that the quoted text specifies one man and plural women.

That's the school I should have attended instead of an engineering school with a ratio of

only way I could have graduated. As it was I took the 5 year plan because plenty distractions
were found off campus.
