University’s Portrayal of Female Students

This is my first post here.
I recently received my move-in pamphlet from my University and couldn’t help but notice that lack of women who were not society’s expectation regarding weight and size. All the female students portrayed in the pamphlet are thin and conform to beauty standards such as make up and hair styles.
Perhaps I am taking too much notice and getting upset too easily in regards to the decisions made by the University for advertising and images for pamphlets.
