Who’s smarter,men or women?It has become a serious policy issue for US colleges and students.
After 17 years of effort to raise the academic achievement of girls, the nation can say proudly that female students have progressed greatly.Women now outnumber men applying to and graduating from college.As a result,the US Commission on Civil Rights is examining whether colleges are engaging in widespread discrimination against women in an effort to balance their male and female populations.
Consider some of the numbers at leading schools:At Vassar College,a formerly all-women’s college,more than two-thirds of the applicants last year were women. Pomona College accepted 21% of male applicants this year,but only 13% of female applicants . At Virginia’s College of William&Mary,7652 women applied for this year’s class,compared with 4457 male applicants.
In recent years,several college leaders have admitted that their institutions encourage male applicants to maintain gender balance on campus.Most students of either sex prefer such balance .Commission documents on the inquiry suggest that colleges could find more ways of balancing their student numbers,prehaps by offering programs and activities that attract men.
The problem we’d like the Commission on Civil Rights to investigate is : What’s happening with the education of US boys? Why are so few of them applying to and graduating from college?Some say that boys are more active and thus less able to sit still for long periods-and as a result,more likely to be categorized as needing special education.A 2008 study suggested boys might do better if they were taught language arts in different ways.Race is a factor as well.The gender gap is starker among African American and Latino students.
There may be no reason or solution.But figuring out ways to help boys achieve in school is a better response to the gender gap than making it easier for them to get into college later.

爱莲说 (北宋)周敦颐 水陆草木之花,可爱者甚蕃。晋陶渊明独爱菊。自李唐来,世人盛爱牡丹。予独爱莲之出淤泥而不染,濯清涟而不妖,中通外直,不蔓不枝,香远益清,亭亭净植,可远观而不可亵玩焉。予谓菊,花之隐逸者也;牡丹,花之富贵者也;莲,花之君子者也。噫!菊之爱,陶后鲜有闻。
