who have a similar or different title
Asst Prof, Assoc Prof, Prof, Lecturer/Adjunct/PT faculty, Administrator/Staff
who are in a similar or different discipline
who identify as a member of an underrepresented group
Diverse groups benefit from a wider range of experiences, insights, perspectives, methodological approaches, literature knowledge, and theoretical applications. Homogeneous groups may provide a higher level of comfort and a shared language.
