Nice article. Pretty much how my college classes went. I was a bit different because I went back to school for ECE hours after my degree, so going through school I had a few years experience as an aide, teacher, and support staff under my belt.
One thing I found amusing is right beside that article is one on how women have become more common in agriculture. When I graduated (early 90s) there were 3 girls in my FFA group. 40% of the FFA students graduating this year at the local school are female. This didn't happen by accident. Rural and some urban/ suburban high schools pushed FFA programs. Colleges encouraged women to pursue ag and agribusiness majors. Companies highlighted women's internships and hiring programs. I can't remember ever hearing a bad thing about it. I can't help but wonder the reaction if schools and ECE businesses did a similar concentrated long term push for more men in Early Childhood. Be an interesting theoretical exercise.
