Educated in Romance : Women, Achievement, and College Culture, Paperback / softback Book

Educated in Romance : Women, Achievement, and College Culture Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Is romance more important to women in college than grades are?

Why do so many women enter college with strong academic backgrounds and firm career goals but leave with dramatically scaled-down ambitions?

Dorothy C. Holland and Margaret A. Eisenhart expose a pervasive "culture of romance" on campus: a high-pressure peer system that propels women into a world where their attractiveness to men counts most.
