[quote=Anonymous]I can see the PP's point about "favoritism," as a tenured faculty member myself. I remember when I was a PhD student that the male students were far more likely to be invited for drinks with senior faculty, who were overwhelmingly men. This was the result, however, of faculty afraid of being accused of sexual harassment. On the one had, I and the other women in my co-hort were not happy that the men were clearly building "social capital" with the older faculty. On the other hand, we figured out ways to socialize with the faculty informally like having group lunches and actively seeking out the mentorship of the few senior female faculty members, who were happy to help us. My undergraduate experience was that pretty much entire seminars were invited to the professor's home. Or the majors (small major), or rotating groups. It was equitable.[/quote]
