Good Luck Pledges!! KKF AAA AFA United Press International This month, for the third straight year, more women than men will sign up for college. The statistical tilt to women, first noted by the National Cen ter for Education Statistics in 1980, roughly figures out to 6.2 million women vs. 5.8 million men. If you prefer percentages, it works out 51.4 percent females; 48.6 percent, males. One reason for the shift: more women than men in the 30-to-35 age bracket are going for a first-time degree, or re turning to finish up one, or to earn new training as they try for a new career. “Are today’s colleges and uni versities meeting the needs of to day’s woman?” asks Dr. Florence Howe, feminist and scholar, who is professor of humanities t*e ■am I*) PIZZA & SUBS Delivers Free...

She and others asked the question repeatedly during a conference at Wellesley Col lege’s Center some two years ago, Howe recalled. The result: a book was born. Called “Everywoman’s Guide to Colleges and Universities,” it was funded by the Fund for the Improvement of Post- Secondary Education and the Carnegie Corporation. Howe said the guide rates col leges in three categories: 1. Women in leadership posi tions in student body, faculty, administrators. 2. Women and the curri culum. 3. Women and athletics. The big paperback — “the size of a big city telephone book” — is dedicated to Title IX “on its tenth birthday,” Dr. Howe said. Title IX, a Federal law passed by Congress in 1972, says: “No person shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from partici pation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimina tion under any education prog ram or activity receiving federal financial assistance.” Among other things, it gives female students and work ers on campus equity with males. “Everywoman’s Guide,” Howe said, “profiles nearly 600 institutions — public, private, doctorate-granting, four-year and two-year — in state-by-state order. “It provides the facts about the status of women and specific services for women on campus — a subject that is rarely discus sed but a reality that female stu dents must confront from the first day.” from two- to iou another two-year$dic|| rest are in four-year also, supposedly,arefe Nuts and bolts information between covers of the guide came from an 11-page question naire sent schools and drawn up with help from the publishing project’s sponsoring organiza tions and advisory board. “Everywoman’s Ci sponsors hope, willhd on their academicuti choices that fittheiii family, career ands needs in a more i| manner. More than the enrollment shift to more females than males was involved in the start-up of the guide. Howe said there was concern because records showed 47.5 percent of female students transfer after their sophomore year. That is based on a study done by the National Center on Education Statistics. Twenty-seven percent go Howe said theannj: questions involved :l these choices providtl for the book and fori college. “They are, like nw lo questions raise:! periods of social ck| live,” she said. ‘ Bunin ful enough to ad< Couple maps nude beaches United Press International PARIS — Now there’s an offi cial guide to French beaches where tourists and locals can leave their inhibitions — and bathing suits — at home. This year’s Official Nudist Guide to the Seashore, available in French at newspaper stands and book stores across the coun try for $6, provides detailed maps of more than 200 beaches where nudity is usual, plus help ful hints for the topless or bot tomless sunbather. “My husband and I actually tried out all the beaches listed in the guide,” author Francine Nenon, 40, said. “I love nudism and I love the ocean. “I visited local police stations and, depending on how conser vative the officers seemed, I in troduced myself either as a wri ter or simply as a vacationer looking for a place to practice naturism.” France was slower than some other European countries to accept nude sunbathing, which began creeping along its three coastlines in the early 1970s.

National police, using aerial photographs of French beaches, counted 800,000 "naturists" in 1979. The French Federation of Naturism said the figure was up to 1 million in 1982. “We get lots of German, Dutch, British, Belgian, Swiss and American summer vaca tioners on our nude beaches," FFN spokeswoman Ghislaine Pesnel said.

As one kitchen boy spied into the room-sized refrigerator with a crate of lettuce and another scooped egg whites into a de ssert, out rang an accent straight from Minnesota. “What kind of vinegar is he putting in the mousse?” Marilyn Ames of Saint Cloud, Minn., asked. Foreigners eager to learn French cooking are flooding Paris’s seven cooking schools. Others work in restaurant kitchens, glad to be assigned to chopping onions. Once they know the tricks, some stay on to get a piece of the food action themselves.
