Sixty years have passed since the pivotal 1954 Supreme Court case of "Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas" and almost fifty years have elapsed since the Higher Education Act of 1965. The Brown decision dismantled public segregated schools in many parts of the country, especially in the South, and racial access in schools expanded. However, current assessments of educational progress such as troubling signs of "re-segregated schools," lower retention and graduation rates for non-white high school students, declining academic performance, and smaller college enrollment and graduation rates have raised the question of whether the intent of Brown has been achieved. Compounding these adverse indicators of educational progress is a more serious post-"Brown" issue affecting all racial groups, namely, the growing gender disparity in undergraduate, graduate and professional school enrollment and attainment. The data in this article not only documents growing gender "gaps" within each ethnic group for bachelor's, master's, doctoral and first-professional degrees, but also confirms that women of all races have surpassed men in every degree category except first-professional degrees. Regardless of whether the disparity is an unintended consequence of "Brown," this article provides some solutions to resolve this perplexing phenomenon.
