Not to imply that guys are not as smart as girls.
What I really am saying is that there are many other choices for the male students that seem to attract them. Sports teams are a big attraction. Many times the girls do both sports and FIRST. The guys seem to focus on just one activity at a time. While the choices for sports are supposed to be equal they really are not, due to when the sport is offered. Add to that the responsibilities of an afterschool job and you reduced availability. Many male students choose - because of necessity - the job. Overall, less male students apply to the team than female students. It has been that way for the past 7 years. |
