"It would be nice to have more (female) company, but I'm not uncomfortable." Richter said the higher the level, the more difficult it is for women to be selected. "It's a mind set. The committee is look9ing for the best man for the job." SOMETIMES WOMEN arc iust overlooked. Hcvcncr said. "I don't see active open discrimination, but there is subtle discrimination, otherwise I don't sec why there aren't more women in the positions,'" she said. Richtcr agreed. "Everywhere you look you find subtleties. It's part of the way we've all been brought up." However, these problems shouldn't stop women, she said. "More women arc in the pipeline to work themselves up. F:or women who aspire, higher education has a great deal to | offer." ^ According to Jameson, more and more women are getting the onnortunilv to advance.

Early childhood and elementary education majors make up two-thirds of education students. The other students in secondary education have a more balanced ratio, 50:50, Maiden said. The education school's general ralio has remained steady ai 80:20 women to men for the past 10 years. But in ihe late 1970s, Maiden said he noticed "a number of women deciding they were not going into teaching ? they wanted to get inio business" and other male-dominated fields. "Over the last couple of years, even though a number of op portunities in other fields have come open, women still want to teach. They're saying 'maybe it is a tradition, but that is still where I want to be.'
