1380: Thomas Sowell – Women & Higher Education

Women in most countries are going on to higher education in numbers comparable to men—and, in some countries, more often than men. In Japan there are 90 women enrolled in higher education for every 100 men, in the United States 140 women for every 100 men and, in Sweden, 150 women for every 100 men. There is no question that the sexes have often been treated differently [with regards to education]. But few societies today have such severe restrictions on the education of girls, at least not in the Western world. —Thomas SowellDownload Print Quality (7680×4020) 206KB  |  Normal Quality (3840×2010) 119KB
