NOTES: The percentage of women in the tenure pool was computed as the total number of women on tenure-track (both assistant and associate) divided by the total number of tenure-track faculty (both assistant and associate). The percentage of women among all faculty was computed as the total number of women of all ranks, tenured or tenure-track, divided by the total number of faculty of all ranks, tenured or tenure-track. Again, we did not consider the 37 tenure decisions involving a woman where the number of tenure-track women was reported to be zero.
