Black Faculty at Harvard: Does the Pipeline Defense Hold Water?
Cross, Theodore
Journal of Blacks in Higher Education, n4 p42-46 Sum 1994
The hiring practices of Harvard University are examined as they relate to the argument that black college faculty members are not available because there are no blacks in the "pipeline" of Ph.D.s. This spurious defense is an anachronism that must be reexamined in considering racial diversity at America's universities. (SLD)
