The Experiences of African American Women Faculty and Administrators in Higher Education: Has Anything Changed?
Patitu, Carol Logan; Hinton, Kandace G.
New Directions for Student Services, n104 p79-93 2003
This chapter explores factors of concern for, and overall experiences of, African American female faculty and administrators, including salary issues, affirmative action, racism, sexism, homophobia, campus climate, isolation, tenure and promotion processes, and salary. The data reported here were gathered during a study of African American women in administrative roles in higher education and from Patitu (2002). These issues have surfaced over the years for the respondents. This leads the authors to conclude that little has changed for these African American women and to speculate that little has changed for African American female faculty and administrators in general. Recommendations for making institutions of higher learning more attractive to and receptive of African American women administrators and faculty are discussed.
