I’ve got mixed reactions to this article today in the WSJ – Gender Bias Alleged at UCLA’s Anderson Business School. I’m glad Anderson has been proactive in conducting internal reviews and publishing the truth, but it’s also frustrating to see how long it takes things to change.
In my three years of 20+ classes, I had 4 female faculty/advisors, three of which were very good/on par with the quality I expected from UCLA.
I also think the little comparison bar graph would be more useful if it was focused on the schools Anderson competes with for students, as opposed to an assortment of business schools.
