 In California, African Americans are roughly 7% of the population. There are only 3% of undergraduate students at UC Berkeley. This fall, full-time MBA student enrollment numbers at the Haas School of Business under scrutiny. This fall, 2018, of the nearly 300 students who make up the Haas MBA program, only 6 are black. We're really, we're deeply concerned about the low enrollment of our African American students in our full-time MBA program. And we recognize that we did not react quickly enough. The full-time MBA program had 10 African American students in 2017 and 19 students in 2016. CalTV spoke with Assistant Dean Courtney Chandler, the school's chief operating officer. Chandler explained that with a dip in numbers, they have developed an action plan. She says that while minority students are admitted, a number of them choose to enroll elsewhere. She says that trust needs to be established. That starts with developing stronger and deeper relationships with our underrepresented minority students much earlier on in the process, even before they have maybe thought about applying to Haas in the MBA program. The new action plan includes hiring a new director of diversity admissions, a chief diversity officer, and increasing scholarships and financial aid. I think we're not doing enough in actually converting the admitted students to the students. So I don't think there's anything big factor happening at the school level that's deterring students from coming here. I think they have choices and we didn't do enough around developing those relationships when they're offered those admissions they want to come here. They plan to expand admission criteria to consider other skill sets as well. They hope to fill the roles by next semester and include students and alumni in the process. Because I think too often organizations just create a new role and think that solves the problem. That's absolutely not what we wanted to do here. MBA students CalTV spoke with declined to comment.
