13. Too bad Condi never got to that point of "learning" as provost at
Stanford. There were a series of studies conducted that showed a great disproportion of retentions and promotions (to tenure, etc) of women faculty, even when the qualifications matched male counterparts. She continued to parrot the admin line that women were more likely to go into the arts and sciences which paid less and that there was no problem (with women phds continually leaving stanford for other presitigious universities). She did this in the early nineties, and much later in the decade when the numbers came around again (still reflecting a problem). Condi never had the .... I have realized.... the very real barriers faced by women in pursuing scientific and other academic careers.

Even back then she was the perfect sycophant and frontwoman for her bosses.
