This is partly shown by the fact that in 1959, only 11 percent of the women between twenty and twenty-one were enrolled in college, while in 1981, 30 percent of the women between twenty and twenty-one were enrolled in college.

  • A The percentage of women between twenty and twenty-one who were not enrolled in college
  • B The percentage of women between twenty and twenty-five who graduated from college
  • C The percentage of women who, after attending college, entered highly paid professions
  • D The percentage of men between twenty and twenty-one who were enrolled in college
  • E The percentage of men who graduated from high school
