How about: classes where the boys don't get all the attention, teachers who don't ignore sexist harassment, a school board that won't punish you for being feminist, a history course that names Columbus as colonizer and oppressor, a university without physical barriers, a curriculum that isn't about white, able-bodied, heterosexual, privileged men. For a start.
