Thank you @SigProcessing for taking so much care with this reading of #InTheShadow and for your thoughtful observations in this 🧵

Finally done with "In the Shadow of the Ivory Tower" and recommend it to academics in general and academics working in #urban #universities (called UniverCities by @DavarianBaldwin) in particular. It has helped me look differently at many things ... 🧵 1/n #highereducation

The Globe article shows IPEDS data where UMass Boston has the highest number of Black women tenured faculty (15) among other colleges in MA. Still a long way to go (only 4% of total tenured faculty) but worth noticing. bostonglobe.com/2021/07/01/met…
