I first describe how the three waves of feminism have influencedpublic school and post-secondary curriculum in British Columbia, and how those changes maycorrespond to the continuing gender gap in post-secondary education for STEM areas: science,technology, engineering and mathematics. Next, I present the analysis of four decades of studentdata collected from a comprehensive community college in British Columbia. The purpose ofthis analysis is to determine the percentage of girls who successfully completed high schoolphysics credits and to present a trending view of their career choices
