Women in Mathematics II

Back in March I posted an article about some research on opportunities in mathematics for women. Yesterday the New York Times published a summary about a report by the National Research Council on the state of opportunities for women in science and engineering. In summary (quoting from the article):

In recent years “men and women faculty in science, engineering and mathematics have enjoyed comparable opportunities,” the panel said in its report, released on Tuesday. It found that women who apply for university jobs and, once they have them, for promotion and tenure, are at least as likely to succeed as men.
