Diversity & Inclusion:Suggestions for Improvement
“More professional support for faculty from underrepresented groups (such as workshops on pedagogy and research) would help to back up the university's stated commitment to diversity
and retention”
“We should have more diversity on our campus.
Students should be encouraged to study abroad or
to learn a foreign language”
“I would like the institution to make a clear and consistent
commitment to improve diversity”
“Make clear how fiscal and hiring of the many administrators decisions are made with or without regard to diversity and how choices are made between internal
and external candidates for these administrative positions”

important at Pitt – URM faculty less so than White faculty
