The Women’s Caucus has collated excerpts of data below that was received from UD’s Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness. We want to thank the Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness for working with us year after year to provide this data. The most complete year of data used for this report was 2020.
As the Women’s Caucus continues to advocate for equitable treatment for all employees, we continue to pursue data that allows us to trace patterns in sex, gender, and race identifications among faculty and staff. The data below shows some of the sex, gender, and race distributions across the different categories of employees.
