The [1]New York Times reports:
Lawrence H. Summers, the embattled president of Harvard
University, announced yesterday that the university would spend at
least $50 million over the next decade to recruit, support and
promote women and members of underrepresented minority groups on
its faculty.
Dr. Summers said the money would be spent on a range of
initiatives, including the creation of a new senior vice provost
post to focus on diversity issues, improved recruitment, subsidies
for salaries, mentoring of junior faculty members and extending the
clock on tenure for professors who go on maternity or parental
leave.
