Regents (continued from page 1) Mays was approved by the com mittee 6-0. Mays also said he hoped the pro gram to get more minority students on the A8cM campus would succeed, as well as a similar effort to get more white students at Prairie View A&M. “I think the programs to get more minorities at A&M seem to be work ing through the financial aid pro grams already in place,” he said. Faculty (continued from page 1) at A&M, believed the discrimination affected their ability to do research and ultimately, their rank and sal ary. The other six said they had never experienced sexual discrimination while teaching at A&M. These women had teaching experience ranging from six to 24 years. “I’ve always been interested in this issue,” McDermott said. “I was try ing to show that there was a tran sition because of the historical changes here, which is why I wanted such a split in teaching experience. “I found that women in isolated departments with only one woman faculty member had problems with discrimination.” A little over a decade after being admitted to the University, women make up nearly half of the enroll ment, but changes have been no where near as rapid for faculty women. and architecture — do not have any female full professors. Tsutsui said this probably is not only because women tend to be over looked for promotions, but also be cause until the past decade, few women earned degrees in these fields. We are even worse than other public institutions because of the military orientation,” she said. “The A&M statistics are always lower, hut the situation has improved. A&M is several years behind other universi ties, but that’s probably true of many schools in the south. This certainly is not the worst place for women aca demically.” The most recently available Univer sity statistics, compiled in Fall 1984, show that overall, male faculty make more money . than females. Glenn Dowling, director of the Office of Planning and Institutional Analysis, cautions that looking at overall fig ures can be misleading. Statistics show the number of fe male faculty at A&M is low at every rank. The Executive Summary, a Fall 1984 faculty headcount com piled by the Office of Planning and Institutional Analysis, shows that A&M has fewer women faculty than other state public colleges and uni versities. Faculty women at the University of Texas tend to be in the higher tea ching ranks, such as associate and full professor, while A&M’s faculty women are concentrated in the lower ranks, such as instructor and assistant professor.

Women make better salaries here thati women throughout the state, but the same is true for the men.” Phillips said salaries are reviewed carefully according to individual performance. “I think that in every college the deans are committed to equal pay for equal performance,” Phillips said. “When we review salaries, we look very carefully for any signs of dis crimination. If persons have the abil ity, they are rewarded for it.” MSC Opera and Performing Arts Serf February 25, 1985 8:00 p.m, Rudder Auditorium MSC Box Office 845-1234 Will perform: Haydn's Sonato in F major Ravel's-Vaises nobles et sentimentales Liszt's Paraphrase on Verdi’s "Aida" and Paraphrase on Verdi's “Rigoletto" Chopin's Ballade No. 1-No. 4 GAVE i ' coun,e|j 1797 Proft. these.
