Diversity Roundtable Discussion #2: Creating and Sustaining Equitable Admissions

In the last few decades, Black, Latinx, and low-income representation in the Hunter College High School student body has declined and does not reflect that of the city it serves. Students are denied an excellent education in an environment that does not support diversity, equity, and inclusion.

In this next presentation, which is the second in a three-part series, we will focus specifically on admission issues facing HCHS and other gifted educational institutions around the country.

Speakers include Dr. Rebecca Deans, HCHS Faculty Member, English/Communication and Theatre; Mari HOASHI Franklin ’84, Chair, Diversity Recruitment Subcommittee; Brian Scott ’83, Chair, Huston-Tillotson University (HBCU) Advisory Board; Kyla KUPFERSTEIN Torres ’92, former HCHS Director of Admissions; and current Hunter students Aruna D. ’22, Mia M. ’21, and Durga S. ’21.
