The Relationship between Faculty Diversity and Graduation Rates in Higher Education
Stout, Rebecca; Archie, Cephas; Cross, David; Carman, Carol A.
Intercultural Education, v29 n3 p399-417 2018
This study examines the relationship between faculty racial/ethnic diversity and graduation rates of undergraduate students, in particular those from underrepresented racial and ethnic minority populations. Using IPEDS data, the researchers calculated a Diversity Score for each institution. Findings suggest U.S. faculty diversity is lower than in the U.S. national population. Overall graduation rates for underrepresented minority students of all races/ethnicities are positively affected by increased diversity of their faculty.
