- Description
- In 1991, the United States government began efforts to address the 'glass ceiling' and its effects on the federal workforce. This article explores the nature of the glass ceiling, particularly progress made since 1991 on the pay status and hierarchical placement of the almost 200,000 engineers in United States federal civilian employment. When a glass ceiling exists, men occupy a disproportionately high percentage of the higher ranks in a career field, while women tend to be overrepresented in its lower ranks. Similarly, on average men earn higher pay than women in the same organizational rank. These were exactly the conditions of the federal engineering field in 1991, the year of the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1991 that addressed the glass ceiling, among other topics. In 1991, as a result of the existence of the glass ceiling, women engineers earned only about 81% of the salaries and wages of their male counterparts. Through an exploration of federal employment databases, this article suggests that the condition of women engineers in government service has improved in the years since 1991—more female engineers are on the government rolls, they make up a much larger proportion of senior engineering management, and their compensation is much closer to parity with men—but they are not yet equal with males on any of these dimensions.

- Description
- The author relates stories from business and government and women's testimonies from offices, assembly lines, hospitals, and schools. She discusses the ways how 'the big boys' portray feminism as women against men, and their opinions about pay equity, family leave and flex time. The author argues for feminism as a system of beliefs, laws and practices that fully values women and their work. She also provides activist strategies to help achieve a society where both men and women are able to reach their potential.

- Description
- Pedrioli argues that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 offers an inadequate solution for encouraging the presence and equal standing of women in U.S. academia. He describes the progress of equality in academia achieved by Title VII and the limitations of tradtional rhetoric. He offers models of faculty mentoring and introduces the concept of invitational rhetoric as means to help close the gap between women and men in faculty positions in academia.
