Women Philosophers and Academic Administration

Evelyn Brister has a great post over at Knowledge and Experience on women philosophers and administrative leadership.  There’s an interesting collection of statistics, facts and explanatory observations.  Among the last, there’s this interesting observation:

              This quote is from an article in the journal Women in Leadership:

You can also find a list of women philosophers who are or have been in leadership roles.

Check it out!  And tell us, here or over there, what you think and/or whether you’ve had any experience in administration.
