Description There has been and still is a great deal of debate about discrimination in the areas of academic administration as a profession and admission to student status in academic programs in the realm of higher education. Many individuals question its origin and debate its reasons for existence. It may be doubtful that discrimination results from deliberate decisions of college and university administrators. It may seem more logical that discrimination results from myriads of individual decisions. Those decisions range from childhood through academic experiences in the university, and finally to the actual selection and recruitment of faculty members that eventually initiate the recommendations for merit increases and promotions. The objective of this thesis is not to focus criticism on the male administrator. Rather, it is to illustrate and support the theory that the seeds of discrimination have been planted in the sociological roles of womankind from the beginning of society thus triggering a response in many facets of life, but for the purposes in this thesis, specifically in academic administration as a profession and admission to student status in academic programs in higher education.
