  3. Why Does Diversity Matter and How Can We Achieve it?1994, The PhD Project has increased the number of African-American, Hispanic-American and Native American business faculty from just 294 to over 1,250 today, creating role models and mentors for minority business students while dispelling stereotypes.    ► Why – now more than ever – is this is critical?► And, what can you can be doing on your campus to foster diversity? 

  4. The PhD Project: A Systemic Model Mission: To increase workplace diversity by increasing the diversity of business school faculty who encourage, mentor, support and enhance the preparation of tomorrow’s leaders. Vision: A significantly larger talent pipeline of African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans and Native Americans for business leadership positions. All collaborating to improve faculty diversity – a very different approach.
