But even accounting for differences in education, males are more quickly promoted and sought after for administrative and leadership positions in education. Even in universities, male professors are more likely to be department chairs, etc.

Totally. I'm a teacher too and wouldnt choose to be an administrator. HOWEVER... we do need to think about why men are choosing those kinds of jobs and women aren't. I think a lot of it is that men are more "sought out" for those jobs. Sure a lot of women wouldnt want those jobs but a lot of men wouldnt either.

ive heard of this sort of thing being referred to as the "glass elevator" before.

Go out. If its lame you can always leave early.
