Out of a conviction that separating students by sex somehow works better for at least some, scattered public schools in Virginia, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Illinois, and California have all experimented with the practice. In the wake of these experiments, public discussion has often focused more on legal and political concerns than educational results. Recognizing the need for further information, the American Association of University Women Educational Foundation here presents a comprehensive inquiry into the subject. The findings of the foremost scholars in the field illuminate the complex educational issues raised by the separation of students by sex. - Foreword.
