Female professors at this university are still paid less than males for two reasons. They have been taken on a lower levels and not received promotions as readily as males. As well, although the university finally agreed a few years ago the salary to a female prof should be the same as a male at the same level, the Board of Governors argued the budget prevented simply correcting the discrepancy and it would be by catch up over several years. Female profs are still routinely paid less than males here for that reason. Rather shocking?

At North Carolina State we have 1 woman of 9 full professors, 4 women of 18 associates, and 3 of 7 assistants. (Four of our 6 part-timers are women; 32 of 50 grad students on assistance are women.) While there are no problems here with salary discrimination (beyond the obvious over-representation of men in the full and associate ranks), I've noticed another consequence of the scarcity of women in the department. Just about all the women faculty, regardless of tenured status, contribute incredible amounts of energy to service work for women's concerns in the department and on campus. Most of what progress has been made in the Women's Studies Program and the establishment of a Women's Center on campus is due to the efforts of women in our department. We have some men with feminist agendas as well, and a couple have assisted; but primary responsibility for improving the climate for women at the university has rested with women faculty. ====================================================================== = Stephen P.

This list is for those students who help or assist the professor or lecturer in their classroom duties. University teaching assistants have a variety of responsibilities. The purpose of this discussion group is to give teaching assistants the opportunity to discuss the roles of being a teacher and a student. Some questions to stimulate our conversation include: What kinds of teaching techniques do you use? How can you motivate students and stimulate discussion? How can you promote a supportive classroom climate? How can you set expectations for students that are high enough to challenge but not to overwhelm? How can you review for tests, write examinations and assignments and grade? How can you balance being a teacher and student? These and many more issues can be discussed in this teaching assistant discussion group. Your ideas are encouraged. To subscribe to the list, send e-mail to: listserv@unmvma.unm.edu (or listserv@unmvma for Bitnet) and in the body of the message put the line: sub t-assist Yourfirstname Yourlastname Owner: Jennifer Gruene jgruene@bootes.unm.edu University of New Mexico From socgrad-relay@UCSD.EDU Wed Jan 27 12:48 PST 1993 sendmail 5.67/UCSD-2.2-sun Wed, 27 Jan 93 11:45:35 -0800 for /usr/lib/sendmail -oc -odq -oQ/var/spool/lqueue -oi -fsocgrad-relay socgrad-list Date: Wed, 27 Jan 93 14:42:11 EST From: "Robert S.

Well, the list has only just started this week so it's impossible to answer either question. I sent out a mailing to all graduate sociology programs in the U.S. and Canada listed in the ASA Guide to Graduate departments -- so hopefully we should get a good representation of North America's graduate students.
