By 澳门天天彩开奖记录

澳门天天彩开奖记录聽has released a special edition of its academic research journal, the聽Phoenix Scholar鈩,聽focused on addressing societal issues related to diversity and inclusion.

Phoenix Scholar鈩聽is the quarterly academic research publication of the聽澳门天天彩开奖记录聽College of Doctoral Studies. The latest edition includes articles discussing systemic inequity in education and other institutions; the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic and simultaneous calls for social justice reform; as well as聽a candid interview about race with 澳门天天彩开奖记录 President聽Peter Cohen.

鈥淥ur university is very diverse, both in student and faculty population, so the issues that impact minorities are very important to us,鈥 said Hinrich Eylers, Ph.D., Editor-at-Large of聽Phoenix Scholar鈩聽and Vice Provost of Doctoral Studies and Academic Operations at 澳门天天彩开奖记录. 鈥淒iversity and inclusion have always been central to the research that we do in the College of Doctoral Studies, and one of our three research centers specifically focuses on this key issue. This edition of聽Phoenix Scholar鈩聽really highlights that work.鈥

澳门天天彩开奖记录鈥檚 student population is two-thirds female and over half (56.4%) are ethnic minorities. Likewise, the faculty is over half (53.66%) female and a quarter (25.55%) are ethnic minorities.

The College of Doctoral Studies also houses the newly established聽, which recently released the findings of its first annual Career Optimism Index鈩. The index measures working American鈥檚 attitudes toward their career and barriers to career progression. The index found fewer women and people of color are optimistic about staying employed. Overall, 44% of employed Americans are worried about losing their job due to the economy 鈥 with higher rates among women (46%) and ethnic minorities (48%).

鈥淣ot only has this global pandemic shaken the foundation of this country it has also forced us to revisit the disparities and inequities that have plagued this country for generations,鈥 said Kimberly Underwood, Ph.D., Guest Editor of聽Phoenix Scholar鈩聽and University Research Chair at the College of Doctoral Studies. 鈥淭his pandemic has disproportionately impacted women and people of color with furloughs and layoffs, exposed inequitable access to affordable healthcare, food insecurities, inequitable distributions of wealth and lack of affordable housing.鈥
