Pushed to the Margins: Sources of Stress for African American College and University Faculty.
Thompson, Carolyn J.; Dey, Eric L.
Journal of Higher Education, v69 n3 p324-45 May-Jun 1998

Results show stress to be most commonly related to time constraints and promotion concerns; they also reveal important gender differences. (Author/MSE)
