Boys are falling behind girls






Since the 1970's the male enrollment in higher education is in decline.  This decline in enrollment in higher education is coupled with lower scores and success rates in high school and grade school.  There is a growing concern that males are finding it difficult to compete with their female peers in traditional education settings.  This growing gender gap deserves attention and action.

  1. So interesting and so not what we see represented in positions of power, heads of corporations, political office. I have no doubt the statistic is true and wonder what its implications are for big business in the next 20 years.
