Our thanks to all the graduate students and faculty in the humanities and social sciences who responded to our surveys about doctoral career diversity this spring. We had a phenomenal response rate. Fifty four percent of all the doctoral students who received the survey completed it, and almost forty percent of all faculty. That speaks to the level of interest in this issue across departments, and the level of commitment we’ve already learned to expect from our students and colleagues. Thank you.
Although we’re still crunching the numbers and digesting the many thoughtful responses, we can see already that these surveys are full of valuable feedback and ideas. We’ll post reports of the results later in summer. Until then, thanks again to everyone who responded, and to the hard working subcommittees that put these surveys together.
