Brent Cunningham, managing editor of the CJR and one of the leaders of an inquiry into Keating’s photo, echoed this question. “There?...

The committee ought to explore whether Harvard’s tenure process has inhibited it from diversifying its Faculty. There are several plausible alternative explanations for the dearth of people of color in the University’s Faculty, including the fact that graduate-level research opportunities for minorities have been restricted in the past, resulting in fewer qualified minorities available for Harvard professorships. Yet the possibility remains that factors in Harvard’s secretive tenure process result in fewer women...
