Fig. 1: Racial-ethnic and female faculty percentages from 2002 to 2022 in IPEDS, overall and by rank.

Notes. Data are from IPEDS for the L&K university sample. A is for Asian faculty, B is for Black faculty, C is for Hispanic faculty, D is for White faculty, and E is for female faculty. Odd-numbered years prior to 2017, and 2010, are omitted because reporting on faculty demographics in IPEDS was optional in these years. The racial-ethnic percentages in any given year do not sum to 100 because there are other racial-ethnic IPEDS categories not shown (see Table 1). The vertical scale is in percentage points and different in each graph to show trends over time for the different groups at appropriate scale.
