Why is diversity important?• It gives us access to talent currently not represented• More perspectives are taken into account in
devising solutions to problems• Diverse faculty/administrators serve as role models
for a diverse student body• We potentially exclude individuals of excellence

Forming the search committee“Search committees should include members with different perspectives and
expertise, and with a demonstrated commitment to diversity.”• Representative
• Within department (Staff is part of the search, too!)• External constituencies?
• Diverse• Title/rank, Focus areas, Demographic
• Can lead to conversations that expand the definition of “strong candidate”
• Increases professional network and can contribute to a diverse candidate pool
• Can draw stronger consideration of under represented (UR) candidates

Always be recruitingRecruiting begins before you have a position (Active Recruitment)• Pre-interview promising scholars at conferences to encourage
entry into academia and to apply to Texas A&M• Actively pursue candidates thriving at less well-ranked
institutions• Ask colleagues at other institutions for names of promising
candidates• Caution: No need to reproduce yourself, do not reinforce pedigree,
advisor, prestige
• Widen the pool from which you recruit16

• Advertise for longer than 30 days• Ask faculty and graduate students to help identify women
and minority candidates• Contact colleagues at other institutions to seek
nominations• Make personal contacts with women and minority
candidates• Contact successful faculty at smaller institutions• Place announcements in media aimed specifically at
underrepresented minorities and women

Writing the position description/ad
“Define the position in the widest possible terms consistent with the department’s needs. […] Make sure that the position description does not needlessly limit the pool of applicants.Some position descriptions may unintentionally exclude female or minority candidates by focusing too narrowly on subfields in which few specialize.”

All of us – men and women – perceive and treat people differently based on their social groups (schemas, stereotypes)
This is implicit or unintentional bias

Analysis of audition records of 14,000 musicians for positions in major US symphony orchestras during 1970-1996:
• Use of blind auditions increases the probability that a woman will advance from preliminary rounds by 50%
• Roster data from 11 major orchestras show the switch to blind auditions accounts for 30% of the increase in the proportion of women among new hires
Orchestrating impartiality: The impact of “blind” auditions on female musicians

Thoughtful evaluation of candidates• Develop a rubric or evaluation tool to guide evaluations, making
sure to include criteria related to contributions to equity, diversity and inclusion
• Review implicit bias training materials before discussion of candidates
• Focus the evaluation on the criteria that was established in the Position Description• The committee should be discussing and evaluating the exact same
criteria for each candidate• If deliberations reveal that additional criteria are being taken into
account, adjust the criteria for evaluating all of the candidates in a manner that is clear to all search committee members

Thoughtful evaluation of candidates• Budget sufficient time to fully discuss and evaluate
candidates• Time-pressured deliberations can contribute to biased
judgments• Take contemporaneous notes at all stages of review• Try to spend equal time on each candidate• If the short list pool looks different than the applicant pool,
assess whether talented candidates were inadvertently overlooked

Thoughtful evaluation of candidatesSteps to maintain a diverse pool• Work to minimize the effects of unconscious and conscious
stereotypes• Consider candidates who have non-traditional educational
or employment history• Consider candidates who have excelled at their research in
less-highly-ranked departments• Do not make assumptions about a person’s willingness to
move• Be careful of unsubstantiated information (rumors,
prejudgments, etc.)29

• Under time pressure• When the task involves ambiguity• When information is incomplete• Non-verbal automatic processes
• e.g. creating yes/no piles of CVs

Diversity statement• Consider a diversity statement from candidates
• Opportunity for applicants to discuss:• Experiences (past), Perspective (current), Vision
(future) related to diversity, equity, and inclusion• Have they done their homework: diversity.tamu.edu?
• Evaluate (rate/qualitatively) each moment separately
• Red, Yellow, Green ratings with qualitative feedback

Pre-interview tips• Consider conducting phone interviews with high number
of candidates before inviting finalists to campus• Commit to interviewing more than one female and/or
minority candidate• Consider inviting more than three candidates to campus• Submit Search Plan and Applicant Pool for certification by
Dean• Dean must approve the list of finalists

Checking references• Phone references from candidate’s reference list
• Design a clear and well structure process for contacting references:
• Prepare uniform questions ahead of time
• Include multiple search committee members in reference check
• Ask for specific examples based on selection criteria• Contact multiple references• Reconfirm negative information (especially if
unsolicited)34

Host an effective campus visit• Consistency in the campus visit is very important• Candidates should be asked the same interview
questions, be provided the same opportunities to share their scholarly and teaching credentials, and generally receive the same high degree of welcome and attention during their visit

Host an effective campus visit• ”Consistency” does not mean “exactly the same”• Some candidates will have ample opportunity to meet with
potential colleagues who share salient demographic characteristics and interests (e.g., white candidates in predominately white departments; male candidates in predominately male departments)
• Unless specifically built into the process, underrepresented candidates often do not have the same opportunity to learn about the common experience of those who share their salient demographic characteristics or interests

Host an effective visit• Avoid leaving candidates alone with faculty who may
be hostile to hiring women and underrepresented minorities
• If a candidate is confronted with racist, sexist, or homophobic remarks, take positive and assertive steps to defuse the situation
• Be sure there is a practice in place in the department for dealing with the expression of racist, sexist, or homophobic attitudes, and that the candidate is made aware of it, if the situation arises (UMich)

About dual-career candidates• Academic women are more likely to be partnered with
other academics than academic men are• This means that disadvantages that affect two-career
academic couples have a disproportionate impact on women
• At the same time, recognize that there is variability among women in their personal and household circumstances
• Do not assume one household type (e.g., a husband and children) applies to all women (UMich)

This university and department are really supportive of my partner’s job search.
Do you have a partner who will be coming on the visit and might want to learn more about job options here?
This is a friendly department where everyone helps one another out.
“I might choose to live in a different place from my husband. I was not treated equally.”
“I got nonstop questions about family issues from the faculty. Nobody asked my husband about family issues.”
“Obviously they didn’t want to offer a job to someone who was going to have a problem.”

Evaluation of finalists
http://facultyhiring.uoregon.edu/40
• Faculty and committee should meet as soon as possible after the completion of the interviews so that information is fresh, and candidates are contacted in a timely manner
• It is critical that candidates continue to be evaluated using the original selection criteria that were developed earlier in the process
• When providing a list of recommended top candidates to the department head or dean, submit an unranked list with a detailed description of strengths and concerns
