For years, institutions have made commitments to diversify their faculties, but at many institutions, change has been slow and efforts have fallen short of their promises. As student diversity continues to grow, colleges are under pressure to have faculties that more closely resemble their student bodies.
In this 75-minute session, explore the complex undertaking of increasing diversity in faculty ranks, and how it requires an assessment and restructuring of the hiring process at your institution.
In this session, you will learn:
- Ways to break down and eliminate barriers to hiring diverse faculty members.
- Strategies for ensuring diverse faculty members have the resources and support they need to thrive.
- How other institutions have made progress in their efforts to increase faculty diversity.
Panelist:
- Liz McMillen, Executive Editor, The Chronicle of Higher Education
Moderator:
- Tabbye Chavous, Director of the National Center for Institutional Diversity; associate dean for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts; and professor of Education and Psychology at the University of Michigan
