Recruiting and Retaining Faculty of Color

Session Submission Type: Workshop

Session Description

The workshop will focus on recruiting and retaining faculty of color. While there are
conversations about this topic on university campuses today, opportunities to bring together
senior scholars and administrators who can implement new policies and procedures to create
campus cultures with diversity that match that of the student population are rare. This workshop
will offer participants a chance to learn from experts as well as discuss with peers toward
outcomes to improve best practices for campus leadership.
