Achieving Institutional Change in the Face of Faculty Resistance
When data showed a persistent equity gap for Black and Latino/a/x students in mathematics, Tacoma Community College leadership knew a new model that did not incorporate four levels of pre-college math and a high-stakes placement test was needed. While some faculty were resistant, the college utilized grant funding, more data, and courageous conversations to change faculty mindset.
Guests:
- Katie Gulliford, Executive Director of Strategic Initiatives, Tacoma Community College
- Christopher Willett, Interim Dean – Science, Engineering, and Mathematics, Tacoma Community College
