The
women's professional network Levo,
for instance, launched its annual #Ask4More campaign last week, opening with comments from high - profile leaders such as Chelsea Clinton and Sheryl Sandberg on the importance of
demanding equal pay and equality generally.
Other strategies that could stimulate
women to stay in science are a) various forms of flexibility with federal - grant funding designed to accommodate
women with young children keeping these
women in the game; b) increasing the value of teaching, service, and administrative experience in the tenure / promotion evaluation process; c) providing on - campus childcare centres; d) supporting requests from partners
for shared tenure lines that enable couples to better balance work and personal / caretaking roles; e) stopping the tenure clock
for one year per child due to childbearing
demands; f) providing fully -
paid leave
for giving birth
for tenure track
women for one semester; g) providing
equal opportunity
for women and men to lead committees and research groups.
