The American College President: 2023 Edition reveals that presidents of color make up a little more than one out of every four college and university leaders. While the undergraduate student population continues to diversify, people of color remain underrepresented in the presidency. Recorded live at the American Council on Education’s recent annual meeting, this episode features Bill Pink, president of Ferris State University, and Leslie Gonzales, associate professor of higher education at Michigan State University, in a conversation about how we can continue to diversify the presidency and why it’s essential.
