Description
The equity gap relating to minority student success and talent management in higher
education is a persistent problem. This is a topic of significant concern at most institutions of higher education and has the potential to have greater impact at community colleges where underrepresented populations are typically larger. A substantial amount of research has examined faculty development and minority recruitment; however, no one has developed a comprehensive solution for improving faculty diversity. While faculty diversity is a topic that is often discussed, the solutions tend to be unattainable in that we must completely change our talent management processes to yield different results. Leaders must invest and commit to improving the development and resources provided for recruitment and retention of diverse faculty. Sinclair Community College has identified six key competencies required for its faculty including scholarship and professional growth, teaching and learning facilitation, student development, assessment, curriculum design, and workplace and community service. Improving the understanding and application of these competencies for African American faculty will improve African American student retention by creating more opportunities for them to feel a sense of belonging and closing the equity gap for the institution in terms of hiring African American faculty and African American student success. |
