Linguistics departments (women/overall)

Gender distribution among faculty (June 11, 2015)^à

Of the 33 departments listed below, only seven have 50% or more female faculty (indicated by ; it used to be nine). Worst faculties (25% or less of female faculty) are indicated by this font.

When possible, I provide the numbers for full-time faculty, not cross appointed.

Rob Malouf has suggested looking at gender ratios at universities that do not grant a PhD, and indeed, for various California state universities there are more women than men at linguistics departments.
