A report from the College Futures Foundation says racial bias plays a role in hiring for executive-level posts at the UCs, CSUs, community colleges.

Oakley spent six years as the chancellor of the California Community Colleges system before leaving earlier this year, which works to increase the share of students of color and low-income students who complete college.
“It takes diverse and equity-minded leaders,” Oakley said in his statement, “to close equity gaps for students.”
