This situation can cause feelings of alienation among faculty (especially junior faculty). Contributing to a negative impact on the department climate. Lack of equity in who is taking on EDI work in department.]]> 2021-06-23 15:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mcba139/TIDE_AAA1/wish/1621875254 https://padlet.com/mcba139/TIDE_AAA1/wish/1621875794 - The professor does not recognize their power and privilege
- Department is frozen in time
- Decisions to hire more diverse faculty may not have involved all current faculty in discussions
- Perceived harmony may have been because of homogeneity
- Professor's perception may not be accurate -- perhaps it has only felt comfortable to them, not to others

How do we better engage this person in the department? Rather than respond with criticism. Gather more information from the person. Identify the behaviour and have further conversations.]]> 2021-06-23 15:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mcba139/TIDE_AAA1/wish/1621882828 https://padlet.com/mcba139/TIDE_AAA1/wish/1621883260 - All faculty should have been involved in discussions of values, changes in hiring, shared responsibility for EDI
- Department should have done more preparation before/during hiring
- consider doing an EDI audit!
- should have created opportunities for faculty to get to know each other across ages, etc.

- Schedule a workshop for all faculty in department
- Encourage professor to think of this as a productive opportunity
- Share data with faculty
- Discuss more with the professor to find out why they are feeling disconnected -- there may be other reasons for their anxiety (e.g., changes in the field, a sense that their research is less valued than in the past)

Create space for these discussions. Identify values around inclusivity and department climate that can be posted publicly. Proactively address and jointly develop policies that help to reduce inequities in workload/committee assignments; hopefully, this would more equitably share workload (including EDI committee work). This might help to engage this more senior faculty in EDI work and hopefully appreciate other perspectives. ]]> 2021-06-23 15:28:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mcba139/TIDE_AAA1/wish/1621890471
