“This series allows us to focus our research efforts on equity and see the role it plays in different educational contexts,” said Dr. Marybeth Gasman, Samuel DeWitt Proctor Endowed Chair and Distinguished Professor at Rutgers University. “Giving this platform to scholars also allows us to see where strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities may lie in educational equity.”
The Proctor Institute is a national center devoted to exploring issues of leadership, equity, and justice in higher education. It brings together researchers, practitioners, and community members to work toward the common goals of diversifying leadership, enhancing equity, and fostering justice for all.
