The Chronicle is gathering a prominent panel for a candid discussion about race and academic life. What are the realities within colleges and universities today? The panel, led by co-hosts Michael Sorrell, president of Paul Quinn College, and Sarah Brown, Chronicle senior reporter, will include:
- Fred A. Bonner II, professor of educational leadership and counseling at Prairie View A&M University
- Marcia Chatelain, associate professor of history and African American studies at Georgetown University
- Tracey E. Hucks, provost and dean of the faculty at Colgate University
- Randall Kennedy, professor of law at Harvard Law School
Drawing on themes raised in recent articles and social media conversations, our panel will discuss:
- Where colleges are succeeding and failing amid increased pressure to diversify the faculty and promote inclusion
-How professors' experiences at predominantly white institutions compare with those at historically black colleges
- What changes to academic life are needed and how to achieve them
