hello, hope this still helps.

A and C are wrong because these options make the reader think that the College was renegade only in the moment that it was founded.

E is wrong because it is awkward

B is wrong because it does not expresses clearly who took the decision.

Points of improvement are welcome

With option D as well the institution is indicated to be renegade at its founding. How is that better than C?

I think D is better than C because the phrase "at its founding in 1833" in D, could be removed without changing the meaning of the sentence:

"X College was a renegade institution in deciding to accept both men and women as students"

Therefore, I think D does not make the reader think that the College was renegade only in the moment that it was founded.

Can any of the experts please explain why C is the wrong answer.

At first instance, C is the most lucrative one...

Is there some rule to differentiate betweeen the two options!!!
IT IS TIME TO BEAT THE GMAT

LEARNING, APPLICATION AND TIMING IS THE FACT OF GMAT AND LIFE AS WELL... KEEP PLAYING!!!
