In the nineteenth century, women s colleges provided many women with access to higher education, yet Susan B. Anthony and other women connected to the women s rights movement favored coeducation. In the late twentieth century, at a time that many single-sex institutions became coeducational, research has indicated the benefits for women of single-sex education. Separate by Degree compares the experiences of women students, in the past as well as in contemporary times, in four small, private liberal arts colleges a women s college, a coordinate college, a long-time coeducational college, and a recently coeducational college to determine how well women have fared with varying degrees of separation from male students."
