KEY POINTS:
QUOTABLES:
“A more representative leadership is essential to higher education functioning differently, but by itself, is not sufficient.”
“These issues that we're dealing with, there are no quick solutions. There's no switch that you can flip. This is about planting seeds, building for the longer term. And that really is about constructing pipelines of success from students through faculty.”
