This volume investigates the dissonance between the supposed
advantage held by educated women and their continued lack of
economic and political power. Niemi explains the developments of
the so-called "female advantage" and "boy crisis" in American
higher education, setting them alongside socioeconomic and racial
developments in women's and men's lives throughout the last 40
years. Exploring the relationship between higher education
credentials and their utility in creating political, economic, and
social success, Degrees of Difference identifies ways in which
gender and academic achievement contribute to women's and men's
power to shape their lives. This important book brings new light to
the issues of power, gender identities, and the role of American
higher education in creating gender equity.
