Steinhardt and Wagner Partner on Future of Men Event

As male students decline in proportion in almost every field across US undergraduate and graduate/professional schools, little attention has been devoted to systematically exploring the causes of this trend-or, in an age in which education is vitally important, its implications for men's roles in American society, culture, economics, and politics more generally.

This issue, and many others, were discussed at a recent event hosted by the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Humand Development and the Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service on May 27. The breakfast discussion featured Dalton Conley, University Professor and Dean of Social Sciences, New York University; Linda Mills, Senior Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education & University Life and Professor of Social Work, Public Policy and Law, New York University; Lionel Tiger, Charles Darwin Professor of Anthropology at Rutgers University, and Peg Tyre, Pulitzer Prize winner and author of The Trouble with Boys.
