问题 According to educators, in mixed university settings, women students______. [br]  
It’s a unique sight in East Africa, a university comprised entirely of women students.
    In a country where only about 12 percent of students pursuing math and science majors in 2007 were women, many see Kiriri Women’s University of Science and Technology as a way of getting more women into a world traditionally run by men.
    Educators say in mixed university settings, women students commonly feel intimidated by their male counterparts and tend to be quiet in class.
    But in an all-female setting, women are forced to develop leadership roles. Student Nancy Nekesa Wamacho says she is inspired by her fellow students.
    The intimidation many women students feel stretches back to childhood. In traditional Kenyan communities, young girls are taught to perform household chores and become wives and mothers at an early age.
    Given a choice, financially-strapped families typically send their boys, rather than girls, to school.
    But educators say girls’ and women’ s access to education is improving in Kenya, with the government’ s 2030 economic plan and the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals. Last year, in fact, girls made up 45 percent of Kenya’s secondary school enrollment.
    Still, says deputy vice-chancellor Gikonyo, there is yet a long way to go, especially in the working world.
