Abstract

This study investigated the demographic diversity of the labor pool for entry-level professional positions in student affairs. Two sources were used: the data maintained by the National Center for Education Statistics on degrees conferred in fields related to student affairs, and an e-mail survey of preparation programs listed in the NASPA and ACPA on-line directories. Overall, women were found to comprise 67%–68% of the labor pool for entry-level positions; African Americans: 12%–15%; Hispanics: 4%–5%; Asian Americans: 2%–3%; and American Indians: 0%–1%. Data were also analyzed by geographic region.
