Race and Sex Group Equity in Higher Education: Institutional and Major Field Enrollment Statuses.
Thomas, Gail E.
American Educational Research Journal, v17 n2 p171-81 Sum 1980

Blacks and women were underrepresented in graduate and professional schools, and they tended to be overrepresented in education/social sciences while underrepresented in the technical sciences.
