Change for Chief Diversity Officers

Inside Higher Ed
August 12, 2011

A new survey suggests that the position of chief diversity officer may soon see significant changes. The survey, by the search firm Witt/Kieffer, found that half of chief diversity officers at colleges plan to leave their positions within three years.

Such turnover could lead to significant changes in the position at some institutions. More than 43 percent of respondents said that they were the first such employees to hold the title at their respective institutions. The survey was based on answers from 94 chief diversity officers at a representative sample of four-year institutions.
