| Summary |
Why do female faculty members report lower job satisfaction at American universities? This book uncovers some of the reasons why women leave academia and why they feel disrespected by colleagues. Scruton tries to discover what factors lead to job satisfaction among women in higher education. There has been sparse literature on why women leave academia. This book aims to fill in that gap by offering new methodological reasons as to why women feel alienated in institutions of higher learning, and eventually leave. |
