About this listen

Dr. Marybeth Gasman, Samuel DeWitt Proctor Endowed Chair in Education, Distinguished Professor, and Associate Dean for Research at Rutgers University’s Graduate School of Education, draws on her award-winning book Doing the Right Thing: How Colleges and Universities Can Undo Systemic Racism in Faculty Hiring to expose how everyday practices - overreliance on elite networks, narrow notions of “prestige,” and false trade-offs between “quality” and diversity, sustain overwhelmingly white faculties even in institutions with highly diverse student bodies. She shows that the problem is not a lack of qualified candidates but the choices institutions make at each stage of the hiring funnel, where diverse pools steadily narrow to largely white shortlists, often without any clear merit-based justification. Arguing that true excellence is impossible without diversity, Dr. Gasman calls for courageous leadership, data-driven decision-making, and real accountability so that colleges move beyond statements and task forces toward concrete changes in recruitment, evaluation, and selection.
