Professional gains for women slight
In a Scientific American report, Eli Ginzberg states women remain under represented in professions and management. He notes the female share has risen only 3 percent in 27 years, with men to women ratios in engineering over 50 to 1, law 20 to 1, medicine 10 to 1, and sciences 6 to 1. He cites 50 percent female enrollment in undergraduate and graduate programs as a hopeful sign.
