Carla Fehr (University of Waterloo) gives the evening lecture at the Summer School on Mathematical Philosophy for Female Students (26 July - 1 Agusut, 2015) titled "Prioritizing Epistemic Arguments for Justice in the Academy". Abstract: White women, and men and women who are members of some racialized groups are underrepresented in many areas of academic research. In addition to the ethical benefits of addressing this problem and improving diversity within our research communities, I have argued that there are also positive epistemic outcomes of this work.
