When Americans think of Education we think of people or all ethnic background, and different sex's that come together in a class room and learn skills for there future Careers. In today's world the Advantages are noticed we have men and women who have to work together to complete assignments; work in groups. They learn when they are young to treat each other with respect and consideration.
