Women in Higher Education: A Compilation of Feminist Historiographies
We are pleased to invite chapters for an upcoming book proposal entitled, Women in Higher Education: A Compilation of Feminist Historiographies The focus of the book will be on women who have significantly influenced higher education in the United States during the mid-19th to mid-20th centuries
Nineteenth century women academics faced numerous tensions in their pursuit of higher education Their persistence was scoffed at by contemporaries Women of this time period influenced gender equity, however their contributions to the field of higher education have remained largely unrecognized Their journeys and leadership strategies may be relevant to women seeking and securing educational roles
The absence of women leaders in higher education has been noted by various scholars An analysis of their leadership skills is needed within the current academic landscape As female graduate students continue to enter into the field of higher education in increasing numbers, there is an urgency to revisit the experiences and contributions of female academics to avoid continuation of the grand
Trang 2narrative Their lived experiences and educational contributions provide foundations and principles which can influence future women leaders in higher education By bringing these women to the forefront, there is a possibility of diversifying and advancing the field of leadership in higher education
Examining women’s contributions to the field of higher education is ethical and responsible and works toward affirming how past female leaders and the strategies they employed can inform current practices of leaders in higher education
We recognize that there remain countless untold stories of their work that have remained unnoticed
or disregarded We welcome feminist historiographies highlighting
women from a wide range of national, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds to share the legacies of these female educational pioneers If accepted, the final book chapters must document the subject’s relevant biography, her contribution to higher education and demonstrate an in-depth intersectionality of narratives between author and historical female figure
This work is being advanced by doctoral students in a class on Women in Higher Education at the University of Hartford We particularly invite graduate students to participate in this project We have written feminist historiographies on five women who had a positive impact on the field of higher education prior to the 1950s The five women are: Annie Howes Barus, Harriette J Cooke, Alice Hamilton, Frances Willard and Sara Josephine Baker
