Despite efforts of West Point to integrate female cadets with males, male cadets' attitudes toward women did not become more favorable during the first year of coeducation. Estimates suggest that it may be a long time before women are accepted fully into academy life. (Author/WI)

This article describes boys' and girls' participation patterns in physical education classes and discusses the practical application of this information to teaching coed physical education team sport classes. (MT)

A verbatim transcription of a lesson in a class of 10- to 11-year-olds is analyzed to support the observation that, in mixed-sex classrooms, male pupils receive more teacher attention than females. Among the reasons found for this imbalance is the tendency of boys to engage in strategies to secure attention. (SK)

Author believes that an understanding of the history of Catholic higher education is essential if one wishes to understand the university movement today, and to understand where Catholic higher education is going and what challenges it faces. (Author/CB)

The coeducational college classroom with male and female teachers working cooperatively provides an appropriate setting for the discussion of sexually relevant issues. Myths and misunderstandings can then be confronted and discussed by everyone. (JN)

Explores the value of introducing single-sex classes within co-educational schools. Draws upon perspectives of girls and boys involved in one such initiative. Concludes girls-only classes may have positive effects for girls, but curriculum-as-usual boys' classes do nothing to challenge problematic male cultures inherent in schools. (BT)
