1980's Education
American education came under fire during the 1980s. Citizens cried out against budget cuts and rising student costs. School districts offered teachers exams and exit exams. It became a part of graduating for Education majors.
Efforts to censor books tripled in the eighties. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn , The Grapes of Wrath, and Catcher in the Rye were among books banned in New York State. They also banned sexist categories (books that they thought were not appropriate for kids).
Columbia University the last all male Ivy League school, began accepting women in 1983.
