By the mid-1980s this logic had become so accepted that most single-sex schools had disappeared, and, in fact, few people cared. To investigate the form of single-sex education, Michael Ruhlman returned to University School in Cleveland, Ohio, the boys' day school he had graduated from more than a dozen years earlier. Through an academic year spent shadowing its controversial headmaster, lively teachers, and the boys themselves, Ruhlman untangles the issues and constructs a narrative of both the world of single-sex education and the world of one school, which inevitably raises questions regarding school culture and environment, questions of moral judgment, rigor, and the importance of language - issues fundamental to the education of all children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Cary Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45843648086214,"sku":"36573","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0210\/6626\/files\/2026_05_14_11_54_31_001.jpg?v=1778781519","url":"https:\/\/thecarycollection.com\/products\/boys-themselves-a-return-to-single-sex-education-1996-ruhlman-michael","provider":"The Cary Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
