Abstract | Leadership roles in higher education are still held predominately by white male leaders while women of color, especially, struggle to be recognized, hired, and/or appointed as leaders. In popular culture, though there have been films and television series that focus on student life on campus, there have been few representations of life as a leader in higher education. A new six-episode Netflix series, "The Chair," about the first woman of color department chair at a liberal arts college examines issues of sexism and racism but doesn't allow for a harsh enough critique of the insidious ways the institution continues to repress women, especially women of color. I engage in an intersectional analysis of the series' representations of a department chair and argue that, while masquerading as a transformative representation, the series actually reifies the ideology of the academy (namely white supremacy and heteropatriarchy) and illustrates the ways progressive change is resisted by institutional powerbrokers holding upper-level managerial roles in the college.
