Small leap for womankind

七月 19, 1996

"Women professors have more than doubled from 12 to 30, How amazing. These 12 were out of about 200 (6 per cent); and the new number of 30 is out of 361 (8 per cent, in a general increase of about 80 per cent). One giant leap for men, one small leap for women.
