ADVANCE Institutional Data
Session Coordinator: Jennifer Sheridan, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Speakers: Alice Hogan, National Science Foundation
Janet Malley, University of Michigan
Virginia Valian, CUNY-Hunter College
Lisa Frehill, New Mexico State University
Session Abstract:

We will discuss the 12 gender equity data indicators that NSF requires all ADVANCE sites to compile and submit annually. Alice Hogan (NSF) will discuss the history of the requirement and how the 12 indicators were chosen. Janet Malley (Univ. of Michigan) will provide an example of how monitoring of these indicators can identify an area of gender inequity that can then be addressed at the institutional level. Virginia Valian (CUNY-Hunter College) will describe some of the difficulties of collecting some of the indicators, especially at a smaller institution that has limited centralized databases. Lisa Frehill (NMSU) will discuss the possibilities for standardization across the NSF ADVANCE sites. Finally, discussant Jennifer Sheridan (UW-Madison) will give a summary of what all of the ADVANCE sites report in regards to these three issues--benefits of reporting the data, challenges in the collection of some items, and the benefits of standardization across sites. Time for discussion and audience questions will be provided.
