Abstract

A battle cry heard for the past few years is, "Why have physics enrollments not increased?" There have been many possible solutions to the problem, and many of them have had some success. For example, the Physical Science Study Committee and Harvard Project Physics have done much in creating interest in physics and thus have helped to increase physics enrollment. Also, the emphasis on laboratory experiences and the increase in audiovisual aids have contributed in making the physics classroom more enticing. It is the writer's opinion that a possible source of physics students might come from those of the female sex.
