Abstract: | The study reported here involved trend and predictive analyses to examine changes in the proportional representation of women administrators by race/ethnicity from 1991 to 1997 in a sample of 1,030 matched 2-year colleges. Hispanic-serving, urban, California 2-year colleges, and the percentage of women faculty of color entered as significant positive predictors of change in the proportional representation of women administrators of color. These findings open the door not only to new ways of informing policy development and practice, but also to future research that can uncover new understandings of gender and race-equitable practices in 2-year colleges. |
