What women want: Listening to voices across Arkansas

To best support women in higher education, especially those balancing complex professional and personal roles, deepening our understanding of their lived experiences is critical. From those experiences we can build meaningful support structures that truly meet their needs. As passionate educators and advocates, we — Drs. Dana Tribble, Assistant Professor of Higher Education and Student Affairs at Arkansas Tech University; Aubrey Holt, Visiting Lecturer of Leadership Studies at Arkansas Tech University; and Sarah Gordon, Dean of Jackson College of Graduate Studies at the University of Central Oklahoma — have held leadership positions in Arkansas higher education and officer positions with the Arkansas Council for Women in Higher Education (ACWHE). ACWHE's mission is to promote institutional change, elevate women's voices, and advocate for meaningful support in higher education.
