This deserves to be published in the NYT. You might clean it up and send it there, either as a letter to the editor or as a guest columnist. Please! Thank you! Excellent and informative.
"The higher education equivalent of gerrymandering is to rewrite leadership hiring processes to remove the voice of faculty and students, who have less and less say in determining who leads their institution." Absolutely true. At most universities that have DEI officers, committees, etc., they meet a lot, they talk a lot, they give campus-wide presentations but, at the end of the day, they don't move the needle. It takes a lot of this before society sees results and cutting it down at this stage negatively affects the future.
