Abstract This edited collection examines women's role in academies. Statistics show that women outnumber men in most universities and that women's pay still lags behind men's, but the numbers only hint at the broader story. Women in the Academy: Learning from our Diverse Career Pathways fills that gap with the stories of twelve women -- from part-time faculty to college presidents -- who answer key questions, such as why they pursued a career in the academy and how they handled childcare issues and sexism in the workplace. This book is recommended for burgeoning female scholars and for established scholars of any gender in women's studies, gender studies, higher education, and communication studies.
