...ladder faculty, availability is normally one to four years after the Ph.D. Since women are just as likely as men to earn their degrees from prestigious universities and since studies have shown that there is no discernible difference in the amount or quality of publications, it is difficult to find any explanation for the dearth of women other than discrimination...
...failure to broaden recruitment efforts. CEWH has suggested to President Rudenstine that Harvard's results do not reflect availability. We have pointed out that it would be reasonable to assume that candidate would be in the availability pool ten to 15 years after the Ph.D. Given that women earn close to 50 percent of the Ph.D.s in the social sciences and humanities, we would expect that this percentage would be reflected in the number of new tenured women faculty...

Increasingly, colleges farm out teaching to part-time instructors, who earn skimpy salaries and rarely get benefits. So, many graduate students figure, they need to haggle for all they can get now--and they think Big Labor (including the U.A.W. and the American Federation of Teachers) can deliver at the bargaining table...
