Abstract

In light of national demographic shifts, leadership preparation programs must create learning environments that reflect school communities. Little is known about issues of diversity in doctoral leadership programs. The survey in this special issue included one item about student diversity in 103 University Council for Educational Administration (UCEA) educational leadership programs. Respondents reported the number of EdD and/or PhD graduates from 2007–2008 through 2010–2011. The article reviews literature on doctoral study, diversity, and leadership development. Based on this review and the available survey diversity data, this article provides a critical analysis of educational leadership doctoral programs and offers recommendations for continued development.
