Women were found to be more likely than their male counterparts to expect to
attend a four-year college, while men were apt to express no plans for further education.
Also compelling is the discovery that male respondents tended to be more conservative
than their female counterparts, while women were significantly more likely to express no
political orientation. Women were likely to consider religion to be very important, and
male students were significantly more likely to deem religion as unimportant.
