An internal report from UCLA's Anderson School of Management finds that the school is "inhospitable to women faculty."

A report from one of the top-ranked business schools in the country has found that the school is "inhospitable to women faculty, according to an internal academic review of UCLA's Anderson School of Management.

The report also found that the school has created "gender ghettos" in certain academic departments and shows a "lack of confidence" in female faculty. 

Melissa Korn writes about higher education for The Wall Street Journal, with a special focus on business schools. She reviewed the report and detailed the findings.
