The percentage of 【C1】______ hired for tenured positions at Harvard University’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences has declined 【C2】______ year since 2000, prompting a group of professors to complain that the Ivy League school’s leadership isn’t doing 【C3】______ .
The proportion of women receiving tenured job 【C4】______ went from a height of 36 percent during the 2000-2001 【C5】______ year to 26 percent in 2001-2002 and then to 19 percent in 2002-2003. Last year, just 4 of 32 tenured 【C6】______ were offered to women.
The numbers all 【C7】______ to the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the largest 【C8】______ of the university which 【C9】______ both the undergraduate school and the graduate school of arts and sciences.
The 【C10】______ has prompted 26 professors to 【C11】______ a letter to President Lawrence H. Summers, who has 【C12】______ over every year of the decline. Summers has agreed to meet next month with the professors.
"There’s no 【C13】______ that hiring as many extraordinary women members of the faculty as we can has to be a crucial priority for the university," Summers, who took over as president in 2001, told The Boston Globe in Wednesday’s 【C14】______ .
The letter suggests that Summers may have inadvertently caused the decline by failing to 【C15】______ the issue, by concentrating new hires in disciplines with fewer women, and by seeking out "rising young stars", who are more likely to be at an age when women pause in their careers to have children.
Summers said that some of the responsibility lies with Harvard’s academic departments. Departments nominate and review candidates for senior jobs, though all must ultimately be approved by him.
Overall, women currently make up 18 percent of Harvard’s senior faculty and 34 percent of the junior faculty, proportions similar to those of peer institutions.
