October 8
Mary Ann Mason: "Do Babies Matter in Academia?" 4 p.m. Fawcett Center Auditorium. Lecture followed by the Annual Women's Reception, Fawcett Center Lobby.

The career aspirations and trajectories of men and women PhDs diverge strongly in academic institutions, with men over-represented in the professoriate and women over-represented in non-tenure-track teaching, administrative, and support positions . Mason's research links those differing trajectories to family constraints, and suggests ways that institutions of higher learning can evolve to provide satisfying work opportunities for everyone.

Mason, formerly Dean of the Graduate School at the University of California, Berkeley, is currently Professor and Co-Director, Center, Economics & Family Security, School of Law.

Co-sponsored by Comprehensive Equity at Ohio State (Project CEOS), The Women's Place, Work Life/Office of Human Resources, and the President's Council on Women.
