| Abstract: | Although considerable attention has been given to the status of social work academics generally, scant attention has been given to the status of social work faculty of color. This study examines the academic status of a special group of social work faculty of color: former Council on Social Work Education Ethnic Minority Doctoral Fellows. Survey data collected from a national sample of 90 former Fellows revealed that (a) a greater percentage of Hispanic-American respondents, as compared to African-American, Asian-American, and Native-American respondents, were full and tenured professors; (b) a greater percentage of male than female respondents were tenured; (c) a vast majority of the respondents who applied were awarded promotion and tenure; (d) most of the scholarly productivity was attributed to a minority of the respondents; and (e) respondents' publication productivity was significantly related to gender and the age at which they received the doctorate. Implications for future research and minority recruitment into doctoral programs are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
