Event Description

Professor Meera E. Deo will discuss her book, Unequal Profession: Race and Gender in Legal Academia (Stanford University Press, 2019). The book draws from Professor Deo’s landmark Diversity in Legal Academia (DLA) project, the first formal empirical study to investigate raceXgender challenges and opportunities facing law professors from diverse backgrounds around the US. Professor Deo’s data expose ongoing biases—but also individual strategies and structural solutions to maximize success.

This discussion will include:

  • 25 minutes of research related presentation focusing on interaction with students, work/life balance, leadership, and solutions;
  • 25 minutes of Q&A with the author;
  • 25 minutes of Q&A with the audience.

Unequal Profession: Race and Gender in Legal Academia will be made available for purchase.

Lunch will be provided.
