3. Pipeline to Tenure Data largest 20 PhD programs
These ideas have been discussed with: • APSA directors and staff• The APSA Committee on the Status of Women• Last year’s equality panel
discussants/audience but NOT YET WITH: • Other status group chairs• Women’s Caucus for Political Science
members• YOU!

1. Microsite:
• New APSA policy: Each organized section and committee can have a “microsite.”

Current listing in APSA website, among “Status Committees”:

Possible Diversity box on APSA home page that could link to microsite:
•Women •Blacks•Latinos y Latinas•Asian-Pacific Americans•Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, and Transgenders

1. Microsite: Thanks to Denise Walsh and Carol Mershon got an NSF ADVANCE grant to develop this site (!!) which will be migrated and adapted to the APSA website this fall. Now at: http://genderingpoliticalscience.weebly.com/

:
A consortium of the APSA Committee on the Status of Women in the Profession and the ASA Committee on the Status of Women in Sociology, with possibly later the AEA CSWEP, the Committee on the Status of Women in the Economics Profession) has collected many of these practices (thanks to Andrea Katz). After discussions with the ASA, the data will, if possible, be placed on the microsite in a “wiki” format that would allow members to update and add entries.

Publications on the pipeline
Thanks to the APSA Committee on the Status of Women in the Profession (Fran Rosenbluth, Chair), Francesca Grandi (Yale), and the Data Monitoring Project, esp. Kathy Thelen. Paula McClain at Duke , Kay Achar, Page Fortna at Columbia, and Fran Rosenbluth at Yale have vetted the instrument, which uses the US Dept of Education categories for under-represented minorities plus Asian Americans.
BAs are not strictly part of the pipeline to tenure, because a) many undergrads take political science for extrinsic reasons, such as appearance on law school applications, and b) many political science PhD program entrants come from other disciplines. This marker thus indicates only possible entrants to the pipeline to tenure.
Data from the largest 20 PhD granting political science departments (minus Duke and UCSD). We can add other departments that volunteer their data.
