The term "academic harem" refers to a situation where women dominate certain fields or positions, while men hold positions of power within those fields. In this case, Shareen is working with mainly female teachers, but the principal is male. This is an example of an "academic harem." Affirmative action refers to policies aimed at reducing discrimination and increasing diversity, and there is no indication that this staffing arrangement is a result of affirmative action. There is also no evidence to suggest that this is an example of a "gendered professional skill set," as it is not clear what skills are required for this particular teaching position.
