Faculty Women of Color cont’d
FINDINGS: Experience multiple forms of marginalization.
College culture and climate was “chilly” and not as “warm” as those from research findings that sampled White women faculty
Despite expressing culture of their institutions as “political”, overwhelmingly satisfied in their faculty work. Commitment to serving underrepresented students and sense of responsibility to the community-at-large mediated or melted the chilliness.
