Education & Education Reform

Women and girls have made substantial progress in educational attainment. Today in the US women receive more than half of all college degrees – and have almost achieved parity with men in advanced degrees in law, medicine and other disciplines. But several gaps persist, and more importantly, disparities remain among diverse women according to race, income, immigrant status and other socio-economic factors. Improving access to quality education for all students including adolescent girls and mothers needs to become a national and global priority.

    RESEARCH

    Center researchers are currently analyzing the results of the Faculty Work-Life Study, a joint project of the Center for the Education of Women and the UM Center for Research on Learning and Teaching. The survey of UM faculty included questions about climate, workload, sources of satisfaction and stress, and incorporate AAUDI questions for comparison to similar institutions.  This project also provides comparison to the 1998 FWLS.

    Contingent Faculty in a Tenure Track World - CEW researchers held focus groups with full- and part-time non-tenure track (NTT) faculty at twelve research universities across the country. In total, we conducted 24 ninety-minute focus groups with a total of 343 full- and part-time NTT faculty. A report of the project is available  and a video based on the project explores the responses of focus group members. The project was funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

    The National Clearinghouse on Academic Worklife  (www.academicworklife.org) combines into a single website information resources and community discussions to support those who study or participate in academic work.  Up to date articles and policy examples are available on topics ranging from family-friendly benefits, tenure attainment, and faculty satisfaction to policy development, productivity, and demographics.  An email newsletter is also available free to subscribers. This clearinghouse was developed  through a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

    The Dual Career Ladder Project, funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, resulted in several publications based on the findings of our institutional survey of U.S. institutions of higher education.  highlighting the numbers, working conditions and perceived contributions of non tenure track faculty.  These are available on the CEW website.

    LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

    CEW’s Advanced Leadership Program offers middle management University of Michigan staff, recommended by their supervisors, an eight-month skill development workshop series and accompanying change management project.  This program has been offered annually for nearly 10 years. 

     

    Focus on Leadership, addresses the need for leadership development and training for staff not yet in key middle-management positions or not yet ready for the more extensive Advanced Leadership Program.  Offered to approximately 30 individuals annually, this program offers participants an introduction to leadership concepts while it assists participants in developing an identity as a potential leader.

     

    Emerging Leaders Iniative  CEW is currently developing an innovative nine-month program for emerging leaders (those with less than 6 years in their career fields) over the course of two years. The program will focus on women from a specific Michigan urban region, combining those from the private and the non-profit sectors.  The program combines in-person sessions, career coaching by senior leaders, and ongoing support and learning using web 2.0 tools including social media and online learning. 

    PROGRAMS

    CEW offers about 50 programs each term, covering topics such as careers, career change and job searching, work-life balance, leadership development, and focused programs for graduate students and post-docs.  In addition, CEW brings special events and speakers to the campus and community. 

    In addition, CEW leads three support networks for University of Michigan women: Women of Color in the Academy Project and Junior Women Faculty Network for women faculty and the Women of Color Task Force for women staff.  These networks offer support, mentoring, and learning opportunities for participants.  The Task Force delivers a campus-wide career conference annually, with about 550 participants. 

    CEW provides free counseling to students, faculty and staff of the University as well as to women and men in the community.  Each year over 1,000 adults are seen by CEW’s professional counselors.

    The Michelle R. Clayman Institute for Gender Research at Stanford University was founded in 1974. It supports interdisciplinary research on women's changing economic and social roles, and wider issues of gender. The Institute sponsors annual lectures and seminars. In 2000, the Institute embarked on a new academic initiative entitled, "The Difficult Dialogues Program," which brings together distinguished Stanford faculty, eminent visiting scholars, and policy makers to consider critical social issues facing our nation that influence and are influenced by issues of gender and ethnicity. The findings of the first Dialogue, "Aging in the 21st century," were summarized in a white paper in 2002. The second Dialogue, "The Changing Structure of the Modern American Family" ran from 2002 to 2004, and its findings will be published shortly. The Institute has recently embarked on its third Dialogue, on the "Dual Career Couples in the Academy".

    "The Changing Structure of the Modern American Family". The focus of this forum was to consider myths surrounding the modern family, to consider the different structures which modern families take and the pressures under which they exist, and to provide practical suggestions to policy makers on ways to support the family, in all its diverse forms. Conclusions will be published in 2006.

    "Dual Career Couples in the Academy". The focus of this research, which began in fall 2005, is to tease out the problems facing dual career couples, and to offer practical suggestions to universities which face difficulties in recruiting and retaining high quality faculty. The study is planned to continue till 2008.

    Science, math, engineering and technology

    Technical Women in Silicon Valley. This study aims to discover why relatively few technical women make it to the highest ranks of Silicon Valley's technology industries. The object is to develop proposals for the industry as a whole to help recruit and retain women in technical roles. This research began in fall 2005, and is planned to continue till 2008.

    Science and Engineering Graduate Women's Association. The Institute sponsors this umbrella group which provides social and profession support to female graduate students in science and engineering disciplines at Stanford University.

    Gendered Innovations in Science and Engineering. In April 2005, the Institute hosted an international conference on how the tools of gender analysis, when turned to science, medicine, and engineering, can profoundly alter human knowledge. This two-day conference focused on specific ways in which gender analysis has brought spark and creativity to particular fields of science. Examples of the success of gender analysis come from fields such as medicine, biology, and archaeology. It was the goal of this conference to highlight and analyze these successes. Questions remain concerning whether gender analysis has anything to offer physics, mathematics, computer science, or chemistry - issues we also addressed. The question is how can an understanding of how gender operates in science and engineering open new vistas for future research. Co-sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the Provost Office Gabilan Fund . Video: The DVDs of conference sessions are available through Stanford's libraries for educational use. They are also available through Interlibrary Loan. The call numbers are: ZDVD 10246 c.1, 2: Gendered innovations in science & engineering [7 discs set]: April 15-16, 2005 / Institute for Research on Women & Gender.

    Projects & Campaigns

    Child Care

    The Center on Fathers, Families, and Public Policy. The Center has formed a partnership with the Center on Fathers, Families, and Public Policy to foster better collaboration between the organizations when addressing the needs of low-income fathers and mothers on child support and related family law issues.

    The Child Care and Development Block Grant ( CCDBG) and Dependent Care Tax Credit (DCTC). The Center appeals for the expansion of both the CCDBG and the DCTC which would better assist low-income families with their child care needs. The current Senate CCDBG and DCTC proposals offer relief for some low-income families, not affecting those between 133% and 202% of the poverty line. The Center's expansion proposal would support these poverty stricken families.


    Economic Development

    Women and Bankruptcy. The Center is currently fighting the S. 625 bill which if passed, would intensify the adversity facing women who file for bankruptcy, making the filing process more complex than ever before. Over 500,000 women were expected to file for bankruptcy in 1999, making bankruptcy a central issue challenging many of today's contemporary women.


    Law and Legal Issues

    Title IX. The Center is working to uncover and reconcile the injustices that accompany the Title IX compliance. Title IX prohibits sex discrimination on every level. Most often, Title IX is exercised within academic walls, requiring an equal distribution of women and men's organizations. On the collegiate front, Title IX has been used to more fully develop female athletic programs. Still, there is room for improvement. Most women's athletic teams are experiencing a unevenly distributed finances, receiving one dollar for every three dollars spent on their male counterparts.


    Reproductive Rights

    Women's Health Report Card. The Center has extended a new partnership with the University of Pennsylvania Medical School's program on women's health to develop a Women's Health Report Card. The Report Card documents the happenings in public policy addressing local and national women's health issues, keeping the public informed of public policy.

     

    Social Security

    Women and Social Security Reform. The Center is working to strengthen the current social security system, which was implemented to specifically benefit the elderly. Since statistically, women usually live longer than men, social security seems to benefit more women than men. That the system remains strong, is an important issues for the women's movement.
