Milem, Jeffrey F.; Astin, Helen S.
Change, v25 n2 p21-27 Mar-Apr 1993
National college faculty data from 1972, 1980, and 1989 were analyzed for patterns of employment of minority group members and women. Trends in hiring, employment status, faculty gender, participation by institution type, and academic rank are charted and discussed. Faculty views on cultural diversity are also examined, including changes over time. (MSE)
