Portland State University announced plans to dramatically increase the diversity of its Ph.D. programs with the help of a two-year, $250,000 grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation

That doesn’t sound like a particularly feasible plan. I would hope that grad student would tend to be attracted to places with a program renowned for their chosen girls of study. I can’t imagine they’re making the assumption that all indigenous grad students want to study the same thing, so then what are they doing? Simply providing financial incentives for indigenous grad students? That sounds great, but I’m curious about the source of funding. If that’s not it… What?

Didn’t know doctorate students were indigenous to Portland.
