1/ Black professors are less than 5 percent of all tenured professors in the U.S. I am a Black tenured Associate Professor.
So read this. A university, which I will name University A (school of public health) expressed interest in me joining as faculty.

2/ University A is not ranked in the top 30 of R1s. My current institution is ranked in the top 20.
University A told me that I would not be able to be an Associate Professor or tenured if I joined as faculty even though I already hold that position.

3/ University A said that I would “need two R01s” in order to be tenured and and Associate Professor, despite the well established NIH funding gap.
Black investigators are nearly half as like to get funding compared the White investigators.
