Academic Faculty Wives and Systemic Discrimination--Antinepotism and "Inbreeding."
Dagg, Anne Innis
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v23 n1 p1-18 1993
A study at the University of Waterloo (Canada) investigated existence of formal or informal policies of (1) antinepotism affecting spouses of current faculty and (2) hiring of the department's own doctoral recipients. Although some departments do hire faculty spouses and own doctorates, many faculty oppose these practices. The questionnaire is appended. (Author/MSE)
