Abstract: Higher Education is experiencing demographic changes within its student populations. Students of color in the near future will be the majority at many colleges and universities. However, the hiring or inclusion of faculty of color at our colleges and universities are not mirroring the students of color population. If Universities, especially institutional leaders, are serious about the success of their students, careful planning, strategic change, and a real commitment are necessary.
