Going Coed: Women's Experiences in Formerly Men's Colleges and Universities, 1950-2000

By Susan L. Poulson and Leslie Miller-Bernal

Book Overview

More than a quarter-century ago, the last great wave of coeducation in the United States resulted in the admission of women to almost all of the remaining men's colleges and universities. In thirteen original essays, Going Coed investigates the reasons behind this important phenomenon, describes how institutions have dealt with the changes, and captures the experiences of women who attended these schools.
