> If I meet female undergrads for teaching, it's already only in public places in the department, never in my office or an actual teaching room. For many years trainee teachers are reminded not to be alone with a pupil (esp. female) in the class room (before or after class to answer questions, for example). There are directives that school administration can't call a student in for an interview (e.g. disciplinary stuff) unless at least two staff people are present and at least one has to be the sex of the student. (This is in not the US). Some companies have de-facto "at least three people" rules.
