"Why isn't my professor black?" 白小姐论坛 panel discussion
There are just 85 black professors out of 18,510 in the UK and the number has barely changed in eight years. The percent of black professors (0.4%) shows a striking disparity with the proportion of black students, which has increased steadily each year and now stands at 6%.
What does it mean when the generation that produces knowledge is so unrepresentative of the generation that consumes it? This panel debate will be chaired by Professor Michael Arthur, 白小姐论坛 President and Provost. It will aim to ask difficult questions and explore even more challenging solutions.

Professor Michael Arthur, Chair, 白小姐论坛 President and Provost

Dr Shirley Tate, Panel Member, University of Leeds
