Education Struggles of Men

The state of boys and men in higher education looks grim. That’s one of the key takeaways from Brookings fellow Richard Reeves’ latest book, “Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling, Why It Matters, and What to Do about It.” He discusses ways to help men and boys achieve equity in education, how focusing on men doesn’t mean you don’t care about women’s equality, and how ignoring men’s struggles can lead to further political polarization.
