Women in the Academy are raising issues of pay parity, equal
representation on committees, increased leadership positions,
stories of resilience, and mentorship espousing changes at all
levels including teaching, research, and administration. These
strategies demand interrogation, and larger questions are being
asked about the place of women empowerment worldviews in the
dominant intellectual traditions of the Academy. Further, the trend
to make changes requires an exploration of new transformational
approaches that draw on critical theory to resist discrimination,
sexism, and racism and support resistance and sustainable
empowerment strategies. Critical Reflections and Politics on
Advancing Women in the Academy is a critical scholarly publication
that seeks to make the Academy responsive and inclusive for women
advancement and sustainable empowerment strategies by broadening
the understanding of why women in the Academy are overlooked in
leadership positions, why there is a pay parity deficit, and what
is being done to change the situation. Featuring a wide range of
topics such as mentorship, curriculum design, and equality, this
book is ideal for policymakers, academicians, deans, provosts,
chancellors, administrators, researchers, and students.

University websites hold considerable power for reaching
prospective students via a cost-effective means as many view the
Internet as the great equalizer among institutions. Unlike
traditional forms of marketing, the quality of a website does not
have to be limited by university size or budget as the price of
accessing the medium and distributing the message can be equal for
all. Therefore, in terms of marketing activities, websites have the
potential to remove the disparity between what larger universities
are able to accomplish and what smaller ones would like to achieve.
But establishment of a website provides no guarantee that visitors,
especially prospective students, will find what they seek within a
reasonable time frame. Therein rests the dilemma for institutions -
failure to locate desired information or difficulty negotiating the
site might, and likely do, lead prospective students to exit. The
focus of this research study was two-fold: to evaluate the extent
to which university websites use relationship marketing techniques
to communicate with prospective students and to evaluate the
usability of these sites. This book is addressed to professionals
in higher education responsible for student recruitment and
marketing.
