This book was released on 2010-04-16 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering a timely topic, which is more and more frequently in the news, this book offers vignettes that will sharpen the reader's ability to recognize and respond to difficult situations sparked by identity differences among faculty, staff, and students in college and university settings. The authors provide a systematic guide to addressing interpersonal conflicts that arise out of issues of identity difference, both for individuals and for campus work teams who provide direct service to students. Managing Diversity Flashpoints in Higher Education empowers readers to diagnose diversity flashpoint situations and positively address them without creating defensiveness and barriers to dialogue. The authors include an overview of the changing ethnic, racial, and gender composition of students in higher education in the United States and the major trends in campus responses to the changing student population. They offer an approach to creating higher education environments that welcome people of all cultural characteristics and promote civility on campus. The book is founded on the authors' research on diversity flashpoints in higher education for which they interviewed a national sample of student affairs professionals. The authors identified uncomfortable interpersonal situations with faculty members in which the discomfort arose from student identity difference. This process led to the formulation of strategies for using vignettes (resulting from interviews) in professional development sessions.

Download or read book 37 Words written by Sherry Boschert and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2022-04-12 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping history of the federal legislation that prohibits sex discrimination in education, published on the fiftieth anniversary of Title IX “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving federal financial assistance.” —Title IX’s first thirty-seven words By prohibiting sex discrimination in federally funded education, the 1972 legislation popularly known as Title IX profoundly changed the lives of women and girls in the United States, accelerating a movement for equal education in classrooms, on sports fields, and in all of campus life. 37 Words is the story of Title IX. Filled with rich characters—from Bernice Resnick Sandler, an early organizer for the law, to her trans grandchild—the story of Title IX is a legislative and legal drama with conflicts over regulations and challenges to the law. It’s also a human story about women denied opportunities, students struggling for an education free from sexual harassment, and activists defying sexist discrimination. These intersecting narratives of women seeking an education, playing sports, and wanting protection from sexual harassment and assault map gains and setbacks for feminism in the last fifty years and show how some women benefit more than others. Award-winning journalist Sherry Boschert beautifully explores the gripping history of Title IX through the gutsy people behind it. In the tradition of the acclaimed documentary She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry, 37 Words offers a crucial playbook for anyone who wants to understand how we got here and who is horrified by current attacks on women’s rights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Gendered Worlds, the authors use the sociological imagination to explore gender relations throughout the world. They look at how concrete forms of gender, race, class, and sexual inequality operate transnationally; examine the impact of globalization on local and everyday life experiences;and identify how local actors re-imagine social possibilities, resist injustice, and work toward change. Integrating theory with empirical studies that are of particular interest to college students-including research on violence, sports, and sexuality-the authors make gender concepts genuinelyinteresting and accessible. They also demonstrate how students can think critically about gender, both within and beyond the classroom.Each chapter begins with an opening scenario about an individual experience of gender, and then traces how macro-level factors shape that micro experience. A section entitled "Gender Matters" follows each chapter to summarize the micro-macro connection.

Download or read book Gender Equity in Higher Education written by Washington State Higher Education Coordinating Board, Olympia and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 bans discrimination in schools receiving federal financial assistance with regard to both academics and athletics. The law has helped ensure that women have access to both academic and athletic opportunities at most higher education institutions in the United States, dramatically increasing the range and scale of women's varsity sports teams and recreational programs. Washington state enacted companion legislation in 1989, also with the purpose of achieving gender equity in higher education. Beginning in 2002, Washington's public four-year colleges and universities were required to achieve female athletic participation rates within five percentage points of female enrollment (for full-time undergraduates, aged 17-24). This report provides updated information on each of the public four-year institutions, as well as the community and technical colleges, where applicable. The report gauges progress made in promoting gender equity since the most recent gender equity report was issued in 2002. Conforming to the statutes, this report is organized into three sections: Student Services, Academic Programs, and Athletics. Findings indicate that all six of the four-year institutions are in compliance with the statutory provisions of the state law; however, there is a pattern of little progress over the past four years, and in some instances, slight declines. The following are appended: (1) Student Employment at the Public Four-Year Institutions; (2) Female Degree Rates for Major Program Areas; (3) Athletic Participation Rates at Community Colleges; (4) Comparison of Athletic Participation at Public Four-Year Institutions; (5) Tuition Aid Awarded to Female Athletes at Public Four-Year Institutions, Tuition Aid Awarded to Female Athletes at Community Colleges; (6) Gender of Coaches at Four-Year Institutions, Gender of Coaches at Community Colleges; (7) Operating Expenditures on Women's Teams at Four-Year Institutions, Operating Expenditures on Women's Teams at Community Colleges; and (8) Intramural and Club Athletics at Four-Year Institutions. (Contains 5 tables and 3 figures.).
