Mandatory diversity training for faculty on search committees?

4/20/2011: That’s what I think I heard CAS Dean Scott Coltrane say Academic Affairs is considering requiring, starting next year. Anyone know more – such as how much we paid the consultant who recommended this, and who presumably knows just the right people to provide this training? (Update: apparently no consultant, as of yet, this is all in the discussion phase.)

If this program involves abolishing the $90,000 per listed minority UMRP and giving that money to departments to use as they see fit – regardless of the race or ethnicity of the person they hire – I’d be willing to talk about it.

    Right, remind me to no longer be on any search committees since, by default, I can’t be trained.

    Note to UO Matters,

    Don’t go down that path. You have been educated. You know the truth.
