Past research in the private sector has demonstrated that corporations with female executives pay their female administrators more equitably. This report presents evidence from CUPA-HR survey data that similar patterns occur in higher education. Institutions with female presidents have a higher representation of women in administrator positions and pay women in administrator positions more equitably. In addition, institutions with female provosts have a higher representation of women among deans and tenure-track faculty. In sum, higher ed institutions with female executives have better representation of women throughout their institutions in positions that: (a) are paid higher salaries and (b) serve as key points in the executive leadership pipeline.
