Dr. Adam Gamoran President, William T. Grant Foundation 02/24/2016 “Over the course of the 20th century, racial inequality in education declined substantially, though economic inequality showed little change. A decade and a half into the new century, neither of these patterns still hold, as racial inequality has risen and declined in fits and starts, and economic inequality has, on some measures, gotten worse. Why have these trends altered, and what can we do about it? In addition to answering these questions, Adam Gamoran will discuss the William T. Grant Foundation’s efforts to support research to improve the lives of young people, particularly in the domain of reducing youth inequality. http://wtgrantfoundation.org/ Follow Vanderbilt on Twitter: https://twitter.com/vanderbiltu, on Instagram: http://instagram.com/vanderbiltu and on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vanderbilt.
