Educational Policy Making and Women: A Look at a Region.

Smith, Martha L.

High School Journal, v64 n8 p317-21 May 1981

A 1979 reputational survey, duplicating a 1977 study, sought to identify the most influential educational decision makers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Texas. Both studies found that a top policy maker is likely to be a white male noneducator from certain policy-making or policy-impacting institutions. (Author/SJL)
