Body

On the Ground • In the last 30 years, women have increased in SRM membership percentage, which appears to have paralleled the number of women hired into academic positions and women entering the discipline. • Although the history of women as SRM members and rangeland educators is relatively short, the increase seems to reflect that of related disciplines. • Gender demographic changes have increased diversity within the SRM and many academic institutions, enhancing what each offers. • Disproportionately fewer women receiving recognition and advancing to leadership positions within SRM or higher ranks within academia may reflect opportunities for the range profession to address. The Rangelands archives are made available by the Society for Range Management and the University of Arizona Libraries. Contact lbry-journals@email.arizona.edu for further information.
