HuffPost, August 3, 2020:
A new survey finds a huge disconnect between how white people and people of color view white allyship in the workplace.
Center for Creative leadership Leading Effectively, August 26, 2020:
Your organization may have good intentions for diversity and inclusion, but be sure actions match them.
The Chronicle of Higher Education, Academe Today, August 31, 2020:
The economic fallout from Covid-19 means administrators will be killing more ideas than they approve. But you can lessen the odds that your "no" will be taken as a personal or political affront.
JAMA Network Open, September 1, 2020:
This cross-sectional study used data on full-time medical school faculty appointed to US internal medicine departments from 1980 to 2018, matriculants to US medical schools from 1980 to 2018, and the general US population from 1980 to 2017. The study found that progress was made in diversifying the academic workforce; however, it may not yet reflect the diversity of US medical students or the US population.
Increasing physician diversity is associated with improved care for underserved patients,1 but general surgery and its subspecialties remain less diverse than most specialties.2 Few interventions exist to address this issue during medical school. Programming that increases exposure to diverse, service-oriented mentors may inspire interest in surgical careers among underrepresented preclinical students.3 We describe the implementation and assessment of the student-led Service Through Surgery (STS) seminars,4 a replicable model for increasing diversity and inclusion in academic surgical education to guide other institutions wishing to incorporate similar interventions into their preclinical curriculum.
The Chronicle of Higher Education, Academe Today, September 4, 2020:
How to protect your bright mind from the drain of everyday racism you may encounter in academic life.
Inside Higher Ed, September 9, 2020:
A singular focus on the current crisis won't do, higher education leaders say. Those in power at colleges and universities must find time to prepare their institutions for an unsettled future that looks very different from the old status quo.
