Session Description

The goal of this special session is to work together with the attendees to identify
strategies to support faculty, especially faculty of color, in bringing their personal identities into
their teaching. According to the National Center for Education statistics, in Fall 2022, only 28%
of full-time faculty did not identify as white. With less than 1% of full-time faculty identifying as
American Indian/Alaska Native or Pacific Islander [1]. This underrepresentation is exacerbated
by the fact that faculty of color often experience a more hostile work environment than their
white counterpa ... (continued)
