Need of Men for Teachers in Public Schools
Commissioner Charles E Matthews urges segregating public school students by gender with men teachers for boys and women teachers for girls. He admits higher costs but envisions a gradual shift without many new buildings, echoed by Superintendent Richard E Menent who favors male teachers for older boys. Obstacles include recruiting competent men as instructors and the reluctance of some to raise salaries. William J Felter argues women teachers feminize youth and supports male teachers for teens, especially boys, to balance development.
