There’s a dissertation to be written on the org & cultural changes required to create stable, internally equitable systems for #DEI professionals & their work. This story about resignations at #Princeton is unfortunate but unsurprising, and a reminder that 2020 headlines about elite universities’ big $ responses to #BLM were just one episode in a still unfolding story. #blackmastodon

He died of cardiomyopathy— an enlarged heart. It was in the middle of my qualifying exam, and on his way to the 2009 meeting of #ASHE, an organization that has honored both of us with early career awards. He was 47. Eric balanced unconditional support, an endless supply of red ink, & nuggets of affirmation I’ll never forget. By instinct & intention, I share his mentoring style with my own advisees.
