The fourth chapter of the 2021-2022 President to President thought leadership series is now available online. In “Race in Higher Education,” George Mason University President Gregory Washington, Ph.D., examines the persistent and far-reaching effects of racial inequality and explores ideas for addressing these issues within higher education. He shares strategies for proactively mitigating the effects of systemic racism and describes steps his campus has taken to develop programs that support inclusion and equity.
This year's President to President series, titled “The Vitality and Power of Higher Education,” takes a close look at the role colleges and universities are playing in a rapidly changing world. Each month, we publish a new chapter focusing on one element of higher education's evolution through the pandemic and beyond. The series is written by highly respected college and university presidents and features firsthand insights and strategies for addressing the challenges of modern higher education. We hope you enjoy reading the series and appreciate the opportunity to continue sharing new ideas.
Sincerely,
Executive Editors:
