Answer:
C
Explanation:
You need a starting point for this question. I think the Cold War began about 1948. That means that it included the Eisenhower administration. Sputnik took place under his watch and the response was near hysteria. It was a major event in education.
Math and Science became the new emphasized and "in" subjects to be taking. There was so much to catch up on. I'm not sure when my province (Alberta Canada) instituted province wide examinations but it was not long after Sputnik. I remember writing them. We couldn't let the Russians get ahead of us. And we were horrified just how far ahead of us they were. Only our very elite students could pass the Russian exams.
The Answer is C
