today's assignment

Go to the Boysproject website (link on the right). Click on the statistics link. Take note of two things, one the gender gaps present in the diagnosis of various disabilities and participation in programs designed for disabled students and compare that to the gender gaps present in attendance in Higher Education Programs. Then take note at the gender gaps in suicide rates at various ages. Draw your own conclusion. If you haven't started doing your own research yet, this may help to motivate you. I have a definite opinion, of course, as an educator and a mother. I will reserve it, and hope that you leave comments disclosing your insights, no matter what they are.
