This study surveyed 83 female elementary school principals across 20 Texas school districts to identify the top gender-specific challenges they face. The principals selected from a list of 12 potential issues and the top 5 issues were identified. The most commonly faced issues were a male-dominated leadership culture (35%), cultural stereotypes of professional roles (25%), lack of support from higher administration (25%), lack of support from parents during student discipline (20%), and sexual innuendo from male subordinates (15%). The study aims to help leadership programs and professional development better prepare and support women administrators.

This document summarizes a study that explored the lived experiences of five African American female professors who successfully attained tenure and promotion at predominantly White institutions. The study aimed to identify coping mechanisms and supports these professors relied on to navigate the tenure process, with the goal of providing strategies for supporting other African American female faculty. The background discusses challenges faced by these professors, such as disrespect, marginalization, shifting identities, and bullying. It also outlines institutional support strategies recommended by previous research, such as transparent tenure guidelines, formal support networks, and mentoring relationships. The study was grounded in theories of Black feminist thought and relational-cultural theory.

This dissertation examines the lived experiences of seven African American male educational leaders at a historically Black college and university in Texas through phenomenological interviews and analysis. The study aims to understand the evolution of their leadership over three decades, the impact of critical historical moments on their leadership styles, influential past leaders, factors influencing their decisions despite adversities, the essence of their leadership, and how their leadership has shaped the university. The researcher conducted in-depth interviews with open-ended questions, collected demographic data and artifacts, and analyzed the data through triangulation to discern themes. The dissertation seeks to preserve the legacy of excellence demonstrated by these leaders and inspire future generations.

The study aimed to test if religious service attendance impacts divorce rates when controlling for social class. It hypothesized that more frequent religious attendance would be linked to lower divorce rates. The researcher used data from the General Social Survey and analyzed relationships between religious attendance, social class, and divorce rates. Bivariate and multivariate regressions found no significant relationships. While religious attendance had a slightly larger impact on divorce than social class, neither variable significantly predicted divorce rates. The results suggest religious attendance alone does not determine views on marriage or divorce.

This document discusses the experiences of Asian Americans struggling with their racial identity and assimilation. It describes the pressure some Asian Americans feel to assimilate into white American culture by abandoning their heritage. This is exemplified through stories of feeling like a "banana" - yellow on the outside and white on the inside. The document also examines how class and education levels have impacted rates of intermarriage between Asian Americans and white Americans over time. It notes the challenges Asian American youth face in developing their identity when their heritage is devalued by the dominant culture, and how finding a role in either white or Asian communities has been part of that identity formation process.

It uses humor to engage students with difficult topics and questions assumptions about what makes spaces and activities racially defined. Through activities, videos, and discussions, the course aims to show how race is a social construct rather than biological and to encourage students to cross racial divides. It provides insights into the dynamics of race through outsider perspectives and questions how unconscious racial thinking can reinforce segregation.
Non-monetary motivations for adult college-goingDavid Monaghan
Adult undergraduates are motivated to attend college for more than just economic reasons. They see a college degree as providing social and symbolic benefits like increased respectability and status. Some students feel the need to disaffiliate from their backgrounds and "join" the group of college-educated people who are perceived to have more opportunities and life choices. Completing a degree helps these students feel like they belong to this different social class.
This study examines the experiences of female and black male higher education professionals with microaggressions. Semi-structured interviews found that participants frequently encountered behaviors that undermined their credentials and professional abilities. Specifically:
1) Participants felt they had to prove themselves more due to their gender or race, with things like appearance or opinions often invalidated.
2) Credentials and experience were regularly questioned or ignored, leaving some doubting their fit within their organization.
3) Comments or behaviors from colleagues sometimes diminished confidence by implying things like success was due to factors other than merit.
The microaggressions negatively impacted professionals' self-perceptions and authority on issues related to their identities. However, participants encouraged developing

This document discusses gender differences in education and society. It notes that gender is a social construct while sex is biological. In education, girls face numerous barriers like lack of access to schooling and early marriage that prevent them from pursuing their goals. Solutions proposed include making schools more equitable by changing structures, hiring practices, mentoring, and training teachers. Socially, gender roles socialize behaviors differently and women face issues like lower work participation, pay gaps, and social violence. Recommended solutions are raising aspirations, empowering women, legal protections, and encouraging non-traditional vocations.

It discusses how masculinity and femininity are defined in society and the process of gender socialization where children learn behaviors deemed appropriate for their sex. It explores how schools reproduce gender inequalities through practices, procedures and discourses that position some students as "winners" and others as "losers". It also discusses bullying and how sexuality and gender are intertwined in schools.

Hi Katharine Mitchell,
I am Jessica Waldorf, a scholar research in Sex and Gender for 5 years, who just travel to Santa Cruz. And I write this paper for suggesting that UCSC should add a new major or some courses for students, which deal with the topic of Sex and Gender.
Over the last couple of years, significant changes have taken place in the world. As the world has entered the “Internet Age”, it has changed the entire face of the world, how life used to be and how things are right now. With this border context, some emerging problems which might be only cared for by a small group of people might evolve a heated discussion. Nowadays, with more and more incident and city news came out, like Harvey Weinstein’s and Trump’s sexual harassment news, more and more people start to care about “Sex and Gender” problems. What’s more, recently, in the scientific community, interdisciplinary research become a general trend of subject development. Because of this, the research of “Sex and Gender” as a cross-disciplinary subject must have more and more scientists to commit. The importance of Sex and Gender research can also be understood by the statement of Carol Colaterlla who is the associate dean at the Ivan Allen CLA and also co-director of the Center for the Study of Technology at the Georgia Institute of Technology, “Gender students as a field illustrates the potential of interdisciplinary scholarship in today’s scientific and technical university” (Carol, 2014). How can we miss the chance to build up such a subject, which is popular and have scientific research value, in such a beautiful campus?
In the United States, sex and gender education has always remained a hot debate or issue. “While the debate about sex and gender studies are mostly related to grad school and high school, there were rarely any talk about the discussion of sex and gender course at the collegiate level or graduation level” (Sollie, Donna & Kaetz, 1992). This actually tells a lot about as educationists and as a nation, we have failed to understand the importance of this education for students and how it will help them in the rest of their lives. Because of the resource available nowadays, there remains no reason why gender and sex courses should not become a part of educational institutions and teach to students. This is a humble effort of convincing the school to include gender and sex courses in their curriculum and play their part in educating students and prepare them for life completely. It should be taught as an essential course to all students – regardless of their fields. Just like language composition, report writing and math is taught to every student, sex and gender courses should also be introduced in the school. This task can be accomplished by creating multiple courses that meet the health science general education requirements. Although, we are always debate about when sex education shoul.
This document summarizes a presentation on racial microaggressions in academic advising. It defines racial microaggressions as brief, common verbal or nonverbal indignities that communicate hostile or derogatory slights toward people of color. The presentation discusses the results of a racial climate study at one university, where many students reported experiencing racism, exclusion, and an informally segregated campus. It then defines three types of racial microaggressions and provides examples of microaggressions students experienced during academic advising meetings, such as advisers questioning students' abilities or steering them away from majors based on their race. The presentation concludes with information on environmental racial microaggressions and contact information for further resources.

In this study of Kwon he talks about the challenges that influx Asians international undergraduate students in universities in the United States. Creating greater education and better social environments. He gets to talking about how Asians American student leaders and their organizations became difficult institutional task on diversity.
This article pertains to be a good source for my paper because it talks about a particular race that have trouble with being able to fit in with the university. Talks about segregation and racial discrimnation in the community. It could be a useful source for my paper. It’s useful because my topic is about racial discrimination and this source fits perfect.

In this study of Walker-DeVose talks about race that’s critical such as how African Americans and White students at a PWI are diverse. He also talks about how Blacks interact with each other. He says when blaack and white socialize its common to say their post-racial environment. In his study he suggest that students of any race recognize the persistence of the racial discrimination.
This source could be a good source for my paper because it has aspects that talks more about race and how they interact on campus and each other. I think this article by far the best one I found because it get in depth with race discrimination in organziations , campuses, and each other. The goal of this source is to inform people on what goes on with each race and people who try to engage with people.

In this study of Sarah Holmes she talks about how GLBT youth comes out more when their younger ages. She also gets into how the schools doesn’t do anything about how the kids of that community get harassed and bullied for being what they want to be. They face problems with racism and the risk of rejection by their community. If parents are apart of the GLBT their children become targets because of them and it affects their ability and focus at school.
This source I feel like wouldn’t be reliable for my paper but it could be a little useful. It could shape my paper in a way that could change my paper. It’s more about the LGBT side than just racism but it some parts of the source it talks about racism. It can be useful because the source is about how LGBT people have to go through things d ...
Race and value for african american malesReChard Peel
This document discusses how racism negatively impacts the value placed on African American males within the American education system. It argues that racism leads to stereotypes that African American males cannot achieve academically, are behavioral problems, and will not be successful in the future. These stereotypes then result in structures that disadvantage and further devalue black males, such as overrepresentation in remedial classes and harsher discipline policies. The document maintains that a dramatic shift is needed to change societal views of race and how students are treated in schools to improve the educational experiences and trajectories of African American male students.
This document discusses gender and educational attainment. It explores how gender norms are constructed and enacted in schools. Gender influences educational experiences through factors like subject selection, teacher expectations, and peer relationships. While girls have made gains, subject selection remains influenced by 19th century ideas. Boys still face issues like lower rates of university completion. The document examines how students "do gender" and negotiate norms through interactions. It also discusses challenges like gendered bullying and pressures of heteronormativity.
This document describes the author's experience growing up as part of an ethnic minority and being bullied for their appearance. As a child, the author felt different and bullied for their Mexican name, looks, and clothes. They believed it was because of their ethnicity. One classmate nicknamed them "Big Bird" because of their nose, making them feel ugly and insecure about their ethnicity. The author reflects on how ethnicity and race can impact one's experiences and perspectives.
African American College Women’s Views of Their Informal Interactions with Pr...Cherie Dew
The document discusses a study on the informal student-faculty interactions of African American college women at predominantly white institutions. It finds that these interactions are impacted by both hindering and facilitating factors related to circumstances, feelings of inadequacy, cultural disconnection, and ability to relate. While some interactions were beneficial, all students reported experiencing hostile treatment or overhearing racist statements from professors. The study provides insight into challenges faced by these women but could be expanded through longitudinal research and examining other variables.
This document discusses the author's experiences with discrimination based on race, gender, sexuality, and other identity factors. The author reflects on being taught gender stereotypes as a child, witnessing racial discrimination, and the stigma around homosexuality. As a person of color, the author felt disconnected and looked down upon. However, the author's mother taught them to embrace their identity and be kind to all. The key lessons are that individuals should be judged based on their character, not attributes beyond their control, and it is important to accept oneself fully.

Sex education polices are not always the same but are sometimes directed by ethnicity and race.As Rubin says that “The realm of sexuality also has its own internal policies, inequalities, and modes of oppression.” (Rubin, 1993,p100)In out daily lives, most of white youth receive enough sex education curricula. But for Latin girls, their culture and identities also influence their experience In learning about sex, love and romance. In the book “Respect Yourself, Protect Yourself” by Lorena Garcia, it shows that lightly more than half of the Latin girls learn very little about sex. What they receive is called abstinence-only education, which does not teach about contraception or abortion. No matter which kind of education of sex Latin girls receive, they are restricted for their engagement with sex education since they are too young to learn these under Latin society. Latin girls are sometimes offered with self contradictory lessons, which create uncertainty to students that how should they recognize those information about sex. For example, one girl called Ines said that “they tell you all about safe, but turn around and tell you, ‘ but you really don’t need to know this...’”(Garcia, 2012,p61) Colored teenagers are considered “as always ‘at risk’ and source of danger” since their lack of proper sex education by Garcia. (Garcia, 2012,p58) With such different acknolowdgement toward sex and love, gender and sexual inequalities are consequently created. Public school’s Teachers even consider sex education at the age of 16 as something unacceptable, students would only get even fewer proper information of sex and love. In the book “Arab American Femininities,” the author Nadin Nader wrote one example of a girl called Nicole. Throughout the whole conversation, Nicole places herself within “a series of binaries” that she was trapped by “Arabs” vs. “America.” (Nader,2006,108)Migrating to America, some of the Arab families want to perceive their old culture and some of them receive the openness of American’s attitude toward sex. If one embrace the American’s attitude of love and sex,which is unacceptable for traditional Arab family, she may be recognized as an “Americanized whore.” Thus, Arab girls are expected to obey their traditional norm ...

This document provides information about supporting transgender students in higher education. It begins with learning outcomes around distinguishing gender identity and sexual orientation, understanding risks faced by trans students, using gender neutral pronouns, and strategies for support. It then covers relevant language and concepts, levels of oppression, the trans timeline, and systemic challenges like risks of discrimination, unemployment, poverty, and suicide faced by the trans community. Institutional level challenges for supporting trans students are discussed, along with examples of support services at Stony Brook university. Challenges and support strategies are also covered for individual trans students around issues like Greek life, housing, and healthcare. The document concludes with resources on inclusive language, pronouns, and scholarly references.

Who are we most likely to see at
the library?
Are there differences among the
men and women of this
campus in how they interact
here?
Because Georgia College is a
predominately white
institution, how much will race
play into this?
How much of it is based on social
cohesion among certain
formal groups on campus?

“Sociological research finds that education and skill play a role but fail to fully explain the placement of either group in the queue or the historical
disparities between whites and racial minorities with respect to earnings, labor force participation, training and promotion opportunities, and choice of
occupation” (Spivak: 2005, 4).

21. Findings
RACE
“A black girl walked in, wearing red converses, tight ripped jeans, a tight white shirt, and headphones. She looks like she’s out of place because she
is glued to her phone and refuses to look up from it.”
“A black girl, more comfortable than others I’ve seen, but still talking on the phone not making eye contact.”
“Black man, rag on his head, scruff, white undershirt with his work shirt over the shoulder. He stepped out of the way of white girls and did not
make eye contact, kept his head down while they walked past. It looked more than just being polite. He got totally out of their way.”
“Asian boy, khaki pants, vans, white spring break t-shirt, black ball cap. He walks by without acknowledging anyone, but still does not look as
uncomfortable as other minorities.”
“This black lady, glasses and hair pulled back, working literally just stepped so far out of her way and kept her head down so a group of white girls
could walk outside. But she didn’t step as far away when a black boy walked past her through the doors. “
22. Findings
GREEK LIFE
“Two girls are sitting on a couch across from the 4 other girls. They have been talking the entire time they have been here. Both are blonde and one has
their hair in a ponytail. Both are wearing sorority clothing and one is in shorts and the other is in sweatpants. They are laughing and joking with each other
fairly loudly. They do not have any computers or notebooks with them. They appear to just be sitting there to socialize.”
“Girls that don’t seem to belong to Greek Life or other large campus organizations are wearing headphones, and don’t tend to look for social
interaction.”
“There are two different types of white boys that I’ve seen today: those that are frat and comfortable in their environment, and those that have headphones
in and are trying to ignore that other people exist.”
“Another seemingly greek affiliated male has just walked by in black dress pants, black coat, and blue dress shirt and white tie and black
dress shoes. He walked through the lib as if he was really feeling himself. He had a bit of confidence in his step.”
“There’s a pledge with khakis, his Theta Chi tie and navy blazer. He keeps running his hands through his hair. He’s ordering a coffee but he
keeps looking around like he’s got to be somewhere soon.”
23. Findings
EMPLOYEE
“There was a little black lady sitting at the table in front of me. I know that she is an employee at the school. She was wearing a bright orange shirt,
she has metal framed glasses, and she is eating either a snack or dinner. Whatever she was eating she had it wrapped up in tinfoil. She pulls out her
flip phone and calls someone. She is looks like she is tired, has had a long day, and just wants to go home put on her nightgown and her slippers and
lay on the couch.”
“ They are accompanied by three white male professors..”
“I glance back over to Books-n-Brew and notice that the employee is now on her cellphone as she is taking a customer's order. This customer didn’t
get any coffee so i’m guessing that she didn’t feel the need to put the phone down. As soon as the boy leaves, she leans over on the counter and
continues to talk on the phone.”
“One of the two guys that works at Books-N-Brew on the first floor walks through the learning center. He is wearing his blue shirt that he has to wear
to work, has his bookbag on his back, and is talking on the phone”
24. Findings
AGE
“There is a lanyard hanging from her neck that has her room key and her bobcat card attached (this makes me think she is a freshman).”
“There is an older woman, with graying blonde hair, she looks about 60.”
”A seemingly older woman is buying a coffee.”
“A group of students probably at least 10 years old just walked through the bottom half of the second floor. They were in uniform grey shirts
carrying backpacks and other.”
“A lady and a man with a very young child have walked by.”
“An older looking man, actually not sure about the age, but he had gray hair was also in a suit walking with a younger Asian student. I am unsure of
the gray haired mans age.”
“He has a backpack and the body language of a college age student but he appears to be much much younger, like possibly early high school or
maybe even middle school. possibly could just be the baby face.”
25. Findings
GENDER
“Pack of white girls, talking about Starbucks. One has a bruise on her leg the size of softball. She just said she’s “never going downtown again”. So
I’m guessing that’s what the bruise is from… she’s got stick straight, long blonde hair, white shorts that need to be pulled down and a tight yellow V-
neck. She’s a walking stereotype for sorority girls.”
“Girl, dark long hair, big smile, red lipstick, walks in on her phone unsure and then realizes her friend is right in front of her, giggles, sits down,
whole demeanor changes. She’s comfortable now.”
“Boys tend to puff out their chest or push their shoulders back when they get down the stairs. They’re suddenly aware that they need to look
masculine?”
“One student drops off a book. He is in a hurry carrying his Mac laptop in his hand and a plain, gray travel mug in the other. His green backpack
looks heavy as the bottom of it droops, and his face is slowly turning red.”
“Two girls come to the table to sign in for study hours. One of the girls is wearing yoga pants with an oversized t-shirt. She has on a North Face
backpack. The other girl is wearing blue jean shorts, a long sleeve plain shirt, and some Rainbow flip-flops.”
26. Findings
CLASS
“A boy with PFG brand shorts, Nike tennis shoes, and a white Polo tucked in is waiting in line for coffee”
“He is wearing a white Georgia college athletic shirt on with shorts. He is on his computer (checking email I
believe)(not a Mac book).”
“He is Asian and he has dark brown hair with an off blue long sleeved shirt on and a dark blue vest on with khaki
shorts on and Nike tennis shoes and Nike socks. He is on his computer (Mac book) doing schoolwork”
“He had a Vans hat on but he took it off and put on some headphone (looks like the Dre Beats Headphones). He is
slouching in the seat on his computer (Mac book) and he is studying something to do with crime. He looks very
focused on his studies.”
27. Limitations
The time each person observed in the library
Late at night when the population was small and had less interaction
Lack of diversity
similar in race and class
Most students are from the metro-Atlanta area
May not be generalizable to all college students
Very small sample of college students
28. Additional Data
why people only notice race when there is a minority present (race)
having information on SES status of the families on the student's (class)
which people were non-traditional student/children of faculty and staff (age)
compare GPA between Greek and non-Greek students (Greek)
those who do not fit inside the gender binary/not cis (gender)
29. Conclusion: Why Does It Matter for Social Strat?
Social stratification = a system by which a society ranks categories
of people in a hierarchy.
how we view people
it is a process
tendency to group others (in group vs. out group)
class, race, gender
