This thread has so far not focused on what can be done to improve women's
performance in physics classes. The evidence for this problem goes way
back and there are many articles in Jour. of Res. in Sci. Teaching (JRST)
which investigate this problem. It starts in grade school and continues all
the way through graduate school. At each stage women have difficulty and
drop out. Science, and especially physics seems to be a filter which
removes women.
