N2  - Taking Women Seriously closely examines successful women's colleges to identify their distinctive characteristics and determine how these characteristics contribute to the success of their graduates. This work stresses that what works at women's colleges can be applied to coeducational institutions of higher education. The authors contend that all colleges should incorporate these important features in their campus environments and programs to provide better educational opportunity for women students
