Abstract: The purpose of this research was to study and understand the relationship between femininity and administrative success as perceived by twelve selected female presidents, vice presidents, and academic deans in the North Carolina community college system. Designed as a multi-site, qualitative study, this research was conducted using an "eclectic" method of inquiry, combining certain elements of the grounded theory approach, specifically those supported by Glaser and Strauss. Each administrator selected for the study was interviewed using a structured questionnaire, and data gathered from these interviews were analyzed with a modified version of the constant comparative method of analysis.
