Massive DEI efforts have not increased grad rates for students of color: study

Despite major diversity, equity and inclusion efforts at colleges and universities across the nation, students of color continue to lag behind the national average when it comes to graduation rates.

Black, Latino, Native American and Pacific Islander students today “have worse academic outcomes as measured by graduation rates,” according to a new analysis by McKinsey & Company.

The analysis also found that, despite Herculean efforts to diversify campuses, 92 percent of colleges fail to represent racial populations among students and faculty that mirror the general population.
