About
An analysis of the United States workforce shows that women and people of color represent an increasing share of employment in the economy in areas previously dominated by white men, yet we still know very little in regard to why these two groups continue to be underrepresented in senior-level positions. The lack of empirical and practice-based research of glass ceiling effects remains problematic. This volume ... offers readers a comprehensive means to understanding glass ceiling effects in higher education. Each chapter approaches the glass ceiling from a different perspective, providing compelling arguments that truly highlight the importance and usefulness of collecting data on this topic. Institutional decision makers will find valuable information to confront the challenge of glass ceiling effects across different institutional environments. Likewise, institutional researchers will find step-by-step protocols to collect and analyze glass ceiling data as well as a variety of rich examples. Readers will not only find this sourcebook useful for institutional planning purposes, but it will also help them truly understand how the glass ceiling impacts women and people of color in higher education.
