TEACHING WHAT?
100 years ago, segregation of sex was commonplace in schools. Not only that, but girls took "girl classes" like home economics, while boys took "boy classes" like trigonometry. One would think that we're past that by now. But under the sex-segregation program at a Mobile school, teachers had been instructed to treat boys and girls differently. At a teacher training, teachers were informed that boys should be taught about "heroic behavior" and girls should learn "good character."
