Book excerpt: This qualitative study examines deeply the career trajectories of 13 women of color administrators at the dean, vice president, and president levels in the California community college (ccc) system. The study focuses particular attention on the specific opportunities and challenges that some of these women have encountered on their leadership career journeys by analyzing the following research question: How have women of color administrators navigated their career trajectories in the California Community College system? In addition, a subquestion asks, what strategies and sources of support have women of color in the California Community College system used to overcome multiple obstacles in their professional lives as administrators? In addition to describing the context of a post-affirmative action/Proposition 209 environment that does not allow race to be a sole or primary factor in ccc hiring decisions, the study reviews the relevant literature on the subjects of career development for women of color and the role of women of color in academia. The study uses as a lens for data analysis a theoretical framework that includes gender considerations (feminism/womanism), racialization (Critical Race Theory), and the intersectionality of these perspectives as a way to highlight the social constructions of race and gender that emerges from the study's data. The study uses snowball sampling to identify 13 women of color community college administrators who serve in dean, vice president, and president positions. The interview group consisted of five African Americans, five Latinas, and three Asian Americans. Each individual was asked about her education, career history, community college experience, strategies, and sources for support. The first theme that emerged, the "Traditionally Untraditional Career Path," indicated that some participants encountered racism, sexism, and cultural differences that affected their journeys. Given that these women of color have all been affected by their race, class, and gender in their careers, this situation rendered their careers inherently nontraditional. The second theme that emerged was "Strategic Connections: Strategies and Sources of Support" which revealed several elements, such as the mentoring and networking that women of color in the ccc system have used to navigate their professional lives as administrators. The third theme, "Leading as a Gendered and Racialized Administrator," highlighted the gendered and racialized positioning of women of color as administrators and emerged from some participants' experiences with overt racism, racial microaggressions, and the pressure of assimilation to a White male culture and leadership style. Implications for policy, practice, and theory are provided in the conclusion. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest llc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only comprehensive encyclopedia on the subject of women in higher education. America's first wave of feminists—Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and others—included expanded opportunities for higher education in their Declaration of Sentiments at the first Women's Rights Convention in Seneca Falls, New York, in l848. By then, the first American institutions to educate women had been founded, among them, Mt. Holyoke Seminary, in l837. However, not until after the Civil War did most universities admit women—and not for egalitarian purposes. War casualties had caused a drop in enrollment and the states needed teachers. Women students paid tuition, but, as teachers, were paid salaries half that of men. By the late 20th century, there were more female than male students of higher education, but women remained underrepresented at the higher levels of educational leadership and training. This volume covers everything from historical and cultural context and gender theory to women in the curriculum and as faculty and administrators.

Barrett (Ed.D. candidate at the University of Hartford) and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While women may represent the majority of today’s college students, they are vastly underrepresented in senior leadership positions at institutions of higher education (Brower et al., 2019; Longman & Anderson, 2011). As of 2016, women represented 26% of all college presidents (ACE, 2016); the number of women college presidents rose to only 30% in 2017 (Lincoln, 2019). At the current rate of women ascending to presidential positions, it will take approximately 48 years for women to hold half of the college presidencies (Edwards, 2017). Community college leadership does not fare much better than their four-year counterpart in terms of women in positions of senior leadership; on 36% of community college presidents are women (ACE, 2017). There is a clear inequity when looking at women versus men in a position of leadership in higher education, and community colleges in particular. There is also a need to examine ways to develop the talent pipeline to enable more women to move up the career leader and ascend to senior leadership positions. Mentoring relationships can provide many benefits for women in higher education and contribute to the long-term career advancement of future women leaders (Donohue-Mendoza, 2012; Gibson, 2006). Participating in a mentoring relationship can has many long-lasting benefits, including employee retention, increased levels of career satisfaction and may inspire individuals in their own career advancement (Brown, 2005; Buch et al., 2011; Gardiner et al., 2007; Tareef, 2013; Thomas et al., 2015). Research shows that women who have been mentored are likely to serve as mentors themselves (Brown, 2005; Searby et al., 2015). The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the role that mentoring networks play in the career satisfaction of women community college leaders. This study used the Development Network Typology as created by Higgins and Kram (2001) as a framework to answer three research questions. Rooted in social network theory, this framework believes that the mentoring relationship can take many forms, from the traditional dyad to a mentoring network. There are four different types of mentoring networks, which differ based on the strength of the relationship between the mentee and mentor(s) as well as the diversity of professional experiences possessed by the mentor(s). A total of 79 women community college leaders from New England were surveyed. For the purposes of this study, a woman community college leader was defined as a woman who has reached the level of “Dean” or higher at her institution. Participants answered questions on a 41-item researcher developed survey tool that was administered through Google Forms. The tool was a mix of both closed and open-ended response items. The data collected through this survey was examined through the use of both descriptive and inferential statistics as well as through correlational analysis. The findings show that the majority of respondents reported their mentoring networks were formed on an informal basis. Most participants also identified with a mentoring network that has a strong relationship with mentors at its core. The findings also showed that the Higgins and Kram (2001) framework did not apply to all participants, as some participants identified with a collaborative network, one that consists mostly of peers and colleagues. The findings also indicated that the stronger the bond between mentor and mentee, the more likely that participants feel that mentors have played a role in their career satisfaction. Participants with a network based on stronger relationships were also more likely to feel that their mentoring network was invested in their career advancement. Recommendations for this study include a review of recruitment and hiring policies of higher education institutions, investing in professional development opportunities, and institution’s supporting the talent pipeline of future women leaders by encouraging the development of mentoring relationship, both formally and informally.

Book excerpt: This study examined the impact of an informal co-mentoring network on the female mid-level leaders in independent schools. The sample was composed of mid-level female administrators in National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS) and California Association of Independent Schools (CAIS) accredited independent schools. An increased understanding of support for female administrators is needed to overcome second-generation gender bias and pursuing higher leadership roles in independent schools has implications for both NAIS and CAIS. Qualitative phenomenological research design was applied to study ways participants say an informal co-mentoring network impacts perceptions of their leadership trajectory, if an informal mentoring network addresses and overcomes second-generation gender bias, and the processes, materials, and discussions through which mid-level female leaders in independent schools co-mentor each other in an informal co-mentoring network to overcome second-generation bias. Once data was collected and triangulated, four themes and four findings were identified. The first theme is: Non-Linear Career Trajectory, the second is Professional Development Through Relationship Building, the third is Confidence, Support and Self-Efficacy and the fourth is Intersectional Identity. Each theme is expanded through four findings that delve more deeply into the experiences of mid-level female leaders in independent schools. The first finding suggests that each of the nine participants arrived at where they are in their career as a mid-level leader through a non-linear trajectory. These women could all name the direct impact WLA had on their career trajectory, and sharing their stories impacted participants. The second finding was that WLA is a place to develop friendships and bonds that develop over time, irrespective of distance or changing group composition, and that WLA meets participants where they are in their leadership journey. A third finding was that the confidence built in the supportive space devoid of competition leads to a sense of self-efficacy for the mid-level leaders who participated in WLA. The final finding was that to meet the needs of female leaders the intersectionality of identity needs to be explicitly addressed. The findings from this study add to the growing literature on the development and career trajectory of mid-career female education leaders, and the findings point to several recommendations for practice for independent schools seeking to improve the leadership opportunities and environments for women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing the ability of underprepared and underserved students to acquire the skills necessary for college success is a critical component of the mission of California community colleges, yet faculty, staff, and administrators have historically received little training in how to effectively do so. For one statewide professional development effort underway, the Reading Apprenticeship Project (RAP), a study was conducted to examine the impact of a teaching innovation, Reading Apprenticeship, on classroom practice and on faculty understanding of student engagement and progress as a result of incorporating the innovation. RAP, a community of practice initiative funded by the state system through its California Community Colleges' Success Network (3CSN), seeks to address a significant gap in faculty pedagogical training: how to support adult students' academic literacy acquisition in discipline-specific contexts. Because 3CSN's RAP has structured its professional development delivery around social learning modalities, a conceptual framework designed to analyze the value of interventions enacted through communities and networks was employed to examine the largely self-reported perceptions provided by the study's key informants, seven experienced Reading Apprenticeship practitioners. Qualitative data collected through individual and group interviews and practitioner observations were systematically described and analyzed using the five categories or "cycles" of the conceptual framework. Additionally, the data, where applicable, were examined within the context of the Reading Apprenticeship Framework itself. Evidence pointing to perceived value was discovered across all cycles, patterns connecting the cycles of community and network learning to the RA dimensions were described, and seven findings corresponding to the research questions were outlined. Through its findings, the study ultimately sought to clarify the core features necessary for the implementation of professional learning that makes a transformative difference in classrooms and across institutions and can be reproduced at scale.
