Women in medicine.
It happened at Yale, Harvard, and Johns Hopkins for the first time in the histories of those prestigious medical schools last fall. Now the trend has reached Texas. This September, Women in Medicine Month, women will outnumber men in the first-year class at The University of Texas-Houston Medical School. As of late July, 107 women and 91 men had been accepted to attend the medical school at UT-Houston Health Science Center this fall. The number of female faculty at the health science center has increased from 128 in 1989 to 253 in 1995. So what makes this particular institution so female friendly?
