Women crowd out men for Czech university places

Saturday’s edition of the daily Pravo highlights the fact that women now represent 57 percent of the total 370,000 Czech university students. In 1991, the percentage was 44 percent. The paper points out that the trend of more qualified women students has not translated in more women in top positions in companies or society. It adds that higher qualified women often experience greater problems in relationships and marriages especially if they earn more than their partner.
