On January 20th, President Elect Donald Trump will take the reins from outgoing President Joe Biden and make his return to the Oval Office. But this Inauguration Day is a little different than most others, because it also falls on Dr. Martin Luther King Day. We saw this as an opportunity to step back and look at King's legacy, how he's remembered, and if we'll ever truly see the progress he's envisioned. Joining us on The Common to discuss is Donathan Brown, Vice Provost for Faculty Diversity at Northeastern University and co-editor of Dream and Legacy, Revisiting King in a Post Civil Rights Era.

Faculty Diversity: A Business Case for Higher Education Success When the PhD Project launched in 1994, you could count the number of diverse students at major business school recruiting events on one hand. Today, after 30 years of systemic change, the initiative has graduated over 1,700 faculty members of color with an extraordinary 90% completion rate – nearly double the national average for doctoral programs. Even more remarkable, 97% of these graduates stay in academia. But here's what makes this story particularly compelling for university leaders: Research has shown that the presence of a diverse faculty is the second highest correlating factor (after state demographics) in attracting diverse students to universities. It's not just about representation – it's about institutional success and survival in an increasingly global economy. This episode of Changing Higher Ed® features Dr. Jeffrey Robinson, Graduate of the PhD Project, Interim Chancellor at Rutgers University, Newark, and Blane Ruschak, President of the PhD Project and Consultant with KPMG. The PhD Project is a 30-year-old initiative focused on increasing diversity in business school faculty. The podcast highlights the project's impact on diversifying the talent pipeline by providing mentorship and support to underrepresented students pursuing PhDs in business. Robinson and Ruschak share their personal experiences and explain the project's systemic approach to change, emphasizing the economic benefits of a diverse workforce alongside recruiting, retaining, and supporting diverse faculty. Key Discussion Points: The Origins and Mission of the PhD Project: Founded nearly 30 years ago to address the lack of diversity in business schools and the workforce. Aims to increase the number of underrepresented minority faculty in business schools, which in turn attracts more diverse students to the field. Driven by the recognition of a changing global business environment and the demand for a diverse workforce. How the PhD Project Works: Sponsors an annual conference for underrepresented minority students to learn about business PhD programs. Provides financial support, networking opportunities, and mentorship to students throughout their doctoral journey. Boasts a 90% completion rate for its participants, with 97% staying in academia. Continues to support graduates through developmental programs focused on teaching, research, and leadership. The Benefits of Faculty Diversity in Academia: Diverse faculty serve as role models for students, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds. They bring different lived experiences, perspectives, and connections to the classroom, enriching the learning environment for all students. Contributes to groundbreaking research and innovative solutions. The Economic Imperative for Diversity: Diverse workforces are better equipped to relate to a wider range of clients and customers. Companies benefit from the diverse perspectives and talents of their employees. The Role of Mentorship and Community: The PhD Project creates a strong support network for participants, helping them navigate the challenges of doctoral studies. Alumni continue to mentor and collaborate with each other, further strengthening the community. Challenges and Solutions in Diversity Recruitment: Retaining diverse faculty is crucial and requires universities to provide adequate support and protect them from excessive service demands. Universities must hold leaders accountable for diversity recruitment goals. Three Takeaways for University Presidents and Boards Invest in recruiting and retaining diverse faculty, recognizing the long-term benefits of attracting and educating a diverse student body. Provide necessary support and mentorship to diverse faculty, ensuring their success and protecting them from being overburdened with diversity-related tasks. Hold university leaders accountable for achieving diversity goals and creating an inclusive campus environment. Final Thoughts The PhD Project is a powerful example of how a focused effort can make a significant impact on diversifying higher education and the workforce. Its success lies in its comprehensive approach, which combines financial support, mentorship, and community building.

Mascots and symbols have long been used as a source of pride within sports. This can be problematic and stir up issues when a symbol used may be offensive. We have seen this at all levels, from high school and college, all the way to the pros. In relation to Cal State East Bay, the “Pioneer” remains a symbol of the school, yet the visual representation was removed after a recent initiative was put into play. This led to the investigation of the symbol's origins and the conclusion that “Pioneer Pete'' did not promote inclusivity. The “Pioneer”, symbolic of Manifest Destiny, also continues to reinforce native people's displacement and also industrialist/ genocidal impulses. Because sport is powerful in bringing together a community, compassion and understanding alongside the deconstruction of personal beliefs is key to tackling mascot issues. Resources: The Faculty Diversity and Equity Committee discussed East Bay's mascot at & voted to send the attached resolution to the Senate https://www.csueastbay.edu/universitycommunications/files/docs/mascot/faculty-senate-resolution-mascot.pdf On May 10th, 2018, CSU East Bay's Faculty Diversity and Equity Committee (FDEC) passed a resolution to retire the current image of Pioneer Pete. Afterward this resolution headed to CSUEB's Academic Senate and on October 6 the senators voted to remove Pioneer Pete as the mascot: https://www.csueastbay.edu/universitycommunications/mascot/history-of-pioneer-pete.html#:~:text=On%20May%2010th%2C%202018%2C%20CSU,Pioneer%20Pete%20as%20the%20mascot.

Tania talks to Betty about modeling how to be an antiracist to your children. Betty S. Williams, MSW, NSC Parent Education Instructor/Program Coordinator Betty is a determined advocate for racial justice and anti-bias work in order to create a more welcoming environment for children and families to thrive. She considers herself to be an accomplice with others also working towards justice, with an understanding that listening and being proximate with those most impacted by injustice and oppression is crucial to justice work. Learning when to be humble and step back to follow the lead of those most impacted, and when to effectively leverage her access to resources & power (as a white person) to speak up for change is a lifelong learning process. Betty has a BA in Psychology from Vanderbilt University, located in Nashville, Tennessee. She received an MSW with an emphasis on working with children and families from the University of Washington. Betty worked in the child care field for many years as an infant, toddler, and preschool teacher, program supervisor, and center director; during which time she helped found and served on the board of the Child Care Directors Association of Greater Seattle. She taught Early Childhood Education and Parent Education Classes as a part-time instructor at Edmonds Community College and Seattle Central Community College. Since 2004, Betty has been working as a full-time tenured instructor in Parent Education at North Seattle College. She coordinates the program as well as teaches 4 classes, and is active in the equity, diversity, and inclusion work of the campus, including co-chairing the Faculty Diversity and Inclusion Committee for the Seattle Colleges District. She has served as co-chair of the AFT (American Federation of Teachers) Seattle Human and Civil Rights Committee and on the AFT Washington Human and Civil Rights Committee. She co-chaired the Racial Justice Team at University Unitarian Church for many years.

Discussing why these faculty chose careers in cardiology and their passion for their work are essential components to inspiring interest in the field. Each talk will feature a cardiology faculty from an underrepresented group, within at least one of several domains: gender, race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, international graduate status, disadvantaged backgrounds, etc. Featured faculty will also represent a variety of practice settings, academic ranks, subspecialties (e.g. clinical cardiology, interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, etc), and career paths (e.g. division chief, journal editor, society leadership, industry consultant, etc). Faculty will be interviewed by fellows-in-training for a two-part discussion that will focus on: 1) Faculty's content area of expertise2) Faculty's personal and professional narrative As part of their narrative, faculty  will discuss their unique path to cardiology and their current professional role with particular attention to challenges, successes, and advice for junior trainees. Specific topics will be guided by values relevant to trainees, including issues related to mentorship, work-life integration, and family planning. To help guide this important initiative, the CardioNerds Narratives Council was founded to provide mentorship and guidance in producing the Narratives series with regards to guests and content. The CardioNerds Narratives Council members include: Dr. Pamela Douglas, Dr. Nosheen Reza, Dr. Martha Gulati, Dr. Quinn Capers, IV, Dr. Ann Marie Navar, Dr. Ki Park, Dr. Bob Harrington, Dr. Sharonne Hayes, and Dr. Michelle Albert. The Narratives Council includes three FIT advisors who will lead the CardioNerds’ diversity and inclusion efforts, including the current project: Dr. Zarina Sharalaya, Dr. Norrisa Haynes, and Dr. Pablo Sanchez. Guest Profiles - Physician Scientists Women Electrophysiology Dr. Quinn Capers, IV Dr. Quinn Capers, IV grew up in Dayton Ohio and left his hometown to do his undergraduate training at Howard University. He began his journey in medicine at The Ohio State University and went on to do residency, cardiology fellowship, and interventional cardiology training at Emory University. After graduation he worked for 8 years in private practice, and made the switch back to academics and came back to Ohio State to continue his career.  In 2009, he was named associate dean of admissions and in 10 years, the College of Medicine went from 13%  underrepresented minorities to 26% of the 2019 entering class, and in the last 6 years women have outnumbered men in the incoming classes.

In our first episode, Dr. Karen Fleming joins Tihitina and Kenny to talk about the "Myth of the Male Genius". Dr. Fleming is a professor in the Johns Hopkins Biophysics department and studies how proteins that are found in cell membranes fold. In addition to her incredible research, she has also been a leader in trying to make STEM a more equitable place for women for which she has been given the Provost’s Prize for Faculty Diversity in 2019. In this episode, we converse with her mainly about the recently released documentary, Picture a Scientist, and the panel she convened to talk about it after it was screened to the Hopkins community. The documentary, itself, chronicles the distressing but also inspiring journeys of three female scientists. We also talk about Dr. Fleming's own journey in being a scientist at Hopkins, what we as undergrads can do to make STEM a more equitable place for women, and much more!

Every year the student population across college campuses grows more diverse while the faculty ranks remain overwhelmingly white. In this feature episode your host David Pluviose, joins EAB's podcast host, Rachel Tanner, to examine the problem and offer concrete steps university leaders can take to change things for the better.  While achieving diversity in faculty hiring has always been the morally right thing to do, David also explores the business case for inclusive hiring and retention practices. He explains why current hiring freezes do not have to be an impediment to progress—and shares the importance of supporting students of color and preparing them for careers in higher education.  The interview originally took place in EAB's podcast entitled “Office Hours” on November 13th—and its certainly one you don't want to miss.

In the coming decades, the success of the US economy will become increasingly tied to the success of Latino Americans. With 58 million Latinos in the US today and projections of population growth in the years to come, Latino workers, consumers, and business owners will shape the present and future of the US economy. How can we secure economic stability and mobility for Latino workers, families, and communities? What policies, practices, or strategies could help to improve job quality, increase skills and access to high-quality jobs, and expand business ownership opportunities? The Aspen Institute Economic Opportunities Program (EOP) and the Latinos and Society Program (AILAS) invite you to watch “Drivers of Opportunity: How Will Latinos Shape the Future of the American Dream?” This event was presented as part of EOP's Working in America event series and AILAS's Latino Economic Advancement series. The Economic Opportunities Program is grateful to the Ford Foundation, the Prudential Foundation, and the Walmart Foundation for their support of this work. The Aspen Institute Latinos and Society Program would like to thank the Ricardo Salinas Foundation, Target, the Woody and Gayle Hunt Family Foundation, Comcast/NBCUniversal Telemundo, the Bank of America Charitable Foundation, Edison International, and Weingart Foundation for making this event and the work of the Latinos and Society Program possible.
