Request for help- faculty demographics in geoscience
Dear colleagues,
Over the last decade, it has become clear that the Geosciences is one of the least racially and ethnically diverse areas of STEM in terms of undergraduate and graduate demographics. Preliminary data indicate that even fewer geoscience faculty identify as members of historically underrepresented, marginalized groups (URM).
I'm part of a NSF-funded project focused on faculty DEI efforts in the geosciences. We need your help to collect critically needed Geoscience faculty demographic data on a national scale that will catalyze our understanding of current racial and ethnic diversity in geosciences, and track progress moving forward. Please ask your department chair to respond to our recent survey (posted by Lynn Soreghan on the AGU chairs and directors list) or visit our website to find out more about how your department can help us collect this critically needed data: http://meem.oucreate.com/nsf-golden-rewards-faculty-data/https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__meem.oucreate.com_nsf-2Dgolden-2Drewards-2Dfaculty-2Ddata_&d=DwMGaQ&c=qKdtBuuu6dQK9MsRUVJ2DPXW6oayO8fu4TfEHS8sGNk&r=iZaNFjj-PzMRBS1c6mbT4g&m=N67qbzgl_O4h9MePs9uUHKU3Z5WfWtnncCn0IdyDGnc&s=TExWbgpyJOnMyuYuzeCZUayU8Pd52JXpV_yRGseiNl0&e= . If you are the only geoscientist at your institution, you can also participate- please email me (melwood@ou.edumailto:melwood@ou.edu) to get instructions. We are hoping to collect data from 2 and 4-year institutions that have programs in geology, geography, meteorology, oceanography, and geoscience.

Dear Megan and Colleagues,
Increasing diversity in the geosciences is paramount. However, are we neglecting an underlying problem that goes beyond diversity at 2- to 4-year higher education institutions? Biology, chemistry, physics, and math are largely required at high school programs nationwide. If geology or Earth science is offered, it is not required and/or is considered an elective. In my outreach at K-8 programs, Earth science is rarely a stand-alone class and is more often a "unit" within a broader middle school curriculum.
It is no wonder Earth science lags behind our STEM counterparts in diversity. The geosciences have never competed with the other sciences on a level K-12 playing field. The K-12 curriculum is heavily weighted towards the other disciplines, often relegating us to "elective" status.
I contend that if we care about geoscience diversity, most of our efforts need to be focused on K-12 education. That is where we can most impact, inspire, and cultivate the profoundly diverse population of Earth scientists that our field has desperately needed for so long.
With sincerest regards,
Greg

Dear Greg,
I agree, there are lots of avenues where we can be doing better! Part of our broader project is to explore how we as geoscience departments motivate and reward faculty who are engaged in outreach to high schools and middle schools, or doing the time-consuming (and often frustrating) work of integrating geoscience into state science standards for public ed. Be on the lookout for a survey related to this and other DEI-focused faculty activities in the fall.
Thanks for your interest- we hope UA will participate in our demographic data collection, which is the first step in our broader project!
Best wishes,
Megan

Thanks for your email. Yes, it appears some university IT systems are blocking access to the full project description on my university-hosted faculty website. I’m working with IT here at OU to migrate the website to a different URL. In the meantime, the full summary of the project is copied below.
We have not posted the url for the survey/data collection publicly, in order to mitigate potential data quality issues.

NSF GOLDEN Rewards Project
[cid:image001.png@01D73C36.3C3B2A90]DEI efforts consist of both deconstructing institutional & cultural barriers, including traditional evaluation systems, and providing opportunities, resources, mentoring, and inclusive learning environments (image credit: E. Madden)
This project aims to identify, empower, and reward diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) champions within the geosciences by aligning hiring, promotion, award, and other evaluation systems with goals to promote diversity and inclusion within our field. Working with with the Southwest Center for Human Relations Studies (SWCHRS), we will learn from and work with national leaders in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in higher education to revise and re-envision evaluation and reward structures within academic units that recruit and train the next generations of geoscientists.
We are currently seeking a postdoc to support this work. Click herehttps://meem.oucreate.com/nsf-golden-rewards-postdoc/ for more information and application instructions.
Specific project goals:
- Collect DEI data from geoscience departments nationwide to capture a baseline understanding of faculty demographics, particularly with regards to race and ethinicity.
- Interview faculty in focus departments and survey geoscience programs nationally to establish how faculty are currently evaluated in geoscience departments; determine how DEI efforts fit within evaluation, tenure, promotion, and award frameworks; assess faculty attitudes on the value of DEI work; and identify barriers to engaging in and rewarding DEI efforts.
- Work with expert consultants to develop example evaluation and reward structures that explicitly value DEI work that can be adopted/adapted by other geoscience departments.
- Work with SWCHRS experts to develop and distribute two webinars focused on helping academic units explicitly value DEI efforts within hiring and evaluation systems. These webinars will be offered at no cost to the geoscience community.
- Evaluate the impact of the webinars and faculty perceptions of revised evaluation systems that explicitly value and reward DEI efforts.
NSF GOLDEN-Rewards Faculty Demographic Data Collection Efforts
The NSF GOLDEN-Rewards projecthttp://meem.oucreate.com/nsf-golden-rewards-project/ aims to develop ways to enable departments to effectively identify and reward diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) champions within the geosciences.
Our first step is to collect faculty and student demographic data from U.S. geoscience departments to establish a baseline of faculty diversity. Geosciences students are less racially/ethnically diverse than other STEM fields, but analogous faculty demographic data do not exist and AGI’s previous efforts to collect such data have yielded low response rates. We need your help to collect this critically needed faculty data that will catalyze our understanding of the current racial and ethnic diversity in geosciences, and track progress moving forward.
To accomplish this, we have reached out to Geoscience department chairs and other administrators to request demographic data from their institutional reporting office or human resources (HR) for instructional faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate majors in their departments. If you lead a geoscience department and did not receive an invitation to participate, please email the project PI at melwood@ou.edumailto:melwood@ou.edu to request further information.
We ask for demographic data based on IPEDs reporting classificationshttps://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/report-your-data/race-ethnicity-definitions, but welcome more detailed data regarding the intersections of faculty and student identity markers if available.
Procedures: All data will be de-identified before analysis and grouped by subdiscipline, type of institution, and/or region when shared beyond the project team. Only the project PI Megan Elwood Madden and graduate research assistant Morgan Woodle will have access to the primary data. No data will be linked to specific departments or institutions in any communications or data summaries. This project has been approved by the University of Oklahoma- Norman Campus Institutional Review Board; IRB reference #:
Risks and benefits: We do not anticipate individual benefits from study participation. Departments of fewer than 5 people may face a potential risk of deductively re-identifying the institution and the faculty in the case of an accidental data breach.
Compensation: There is no compensation for completing this survey.
Number of participants: There will be approximately 300 participating departments in this part of the study.
Voluntary participation: Your participation is voluntary. Even if you choose to participate now, you may stop participating at any time and for any reason. We will not attribute any data to you by name, department, or institution. The data may also be used in future research studies, without obtaining additional consent, unless you contact us to withdraw the data.
Questions: If you have questions about this research, please contact Dr. Megan Elwood Madden at melwood@ou.edu or 405-618-6275. You can also contact the University of Oklahoma –Norman Campus Institutional Review Board at 405-325-8110 or irb@ou.edu with questions, concerns or complaints about your rights as a research participant, or if you don’t want to talk to the researchers.

Thank you for your message and your good work. I hope your request receives a generous and continuing response over the years since good data is the foundation of science. Without it, at best we are left with mere speculation.
The Ford Foundation might be able to provide you with some additional data since they follow the career paths of their fellows at regular intervals.
