Presentation Overview1
"The history of women in higher education reflects a constant battle for access and equity. Although the number of post-secondary institutions steadily increased after Harvard University opened its doors in 1636, almost two hundred years would pass before women students were allowed at some institutions. In the last 50 years, the number of women graduating from four-year institutions has dramatically increased. The same delayed access for women students to gain admittance mirrors the challenges that women faculty and staff have seen in obtaining leadership roles within higher education. Despite enrollment numbers that indicate women students are enrolling and graduating at faster rates than their male counterparts, very few women attain the highest level of leadership within a university. Several reasons for this lack of representation include historical inequalities, stereotypical notions about women's leadership styles, the presence of a chilly climate on college campuses, and the male-dominated history of academia, which can impact the speed of advancement and professional options for women."
