I'm pumped about my faculty workshop title on multiple choice exams. Developed a version of this in 2021 before LLMs, so my own.

RIP Dolly Parton.

Never met her, never interviewed her (despite decades of unrequited requests) but thought she was utterly fabulous in every way.

Dear readers, the correct figure is 0.4%. Nearly 100x less. www.varsity.co.uk/features/29235
While the proportion of BAME professors has increased from 7.1% in 2016 to 9.4% in 2022, progress remains slow and uneven. Asian academics form the majority within this category, while Black academics remain critically underrepresented at 0.4%. White staff continue to dominate senior roles, shaping hiring and promotion
