ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW DISCUSSION LIST:

"Academic Women in Music" is a public discussion list devoted to the
concerns and experiences of women who teach music at universities and
colleges, either in performance, musicology, conducting, composition,
theory, pedagogy, electronic music, music education, or any musical area or
combination of areas.

One of the pages to examine for discussion material is Dr. Bernice Sandler's
page, "Women in Academia," which materials are used with her permission.
Designing this page came about because of a discussion on the IAWM list
about the behavioral differences between men and women (academics) with
respect to their levels of assertiveness. The essays include:

1. Women Faculty at Work in the Classroom, or, Why It Still Hurts to be a
Woman in Labor

2. Handling Sexual Harassment

3. Ways in Which Men and Women May Be Treated Differently

4. Intervening When Male Students Engage in Negative Behaviors Toward Women

5. A New Look at how even the best of teachers--women and men--often treat
male and female students differently, in ways that limit women's full
participation in the classroom.
