This issue explores a cornucopia of perspectives with the bonus
of a High School essay winner. Two articles are research papers
that ask and acknowledge some controversial questions and allow
readers to compare results with their tables. The reflective articles
consider women as leaders and the job of mentoring. The articles
within are: "Faculty Tiering and
Academic Inbreeding: One Institution's Relationships and Realities"
(Debra Blanke, Adrienne Hyle); "Attitudes
Toward Women Leaders Analyzed by Gender and Occupations (1984-1998)"
(Jacqueline Lougheed); "Beyond
Mentoring: Toward an Invitational Academe" (Catherine Hackney,
Marianne Bock); "Successful
Women Leaders: Achieving Resiliency through Rituals and Resources"
(Judith DeTrude, Vicki Stanfield); "Women
as Leaders: Piecing Together Their Reflections on Life and the Principalship"
(Nancy Colflesh); and "Women
of Courage: Yesterday and Today" (Katie Papazian)
We hope you enjoy this issue of Advancing Women in Leadership in
its entirety and that you look forward to subsequent issues soon
to be published. Our intent is for this journal to serve women and
girls around the world and to be viewed as a professional publication
site for the scholarly inquiry and perspectives that advance women
in leadership. Suggestions for improvement, encouragement, and submissions
for upcoming issues are always welcome and appreciated.
