The ratification of a new Cal State University faculty contract now gives professors on campus the explicit right to rebut sexist, racist and prejudiced bias in student evaluations. While this seems like a win for faculty across the CSU, the recent negotiations have shown an unrefuted bias in evaluations towards women, Black, Indigenous and people of color and LGBTQ faculty. For example, the same study that identified gender bias in student evaluations found that some professors who taught in the social sciences and humanities received higher scores on student evaluations than their colleagues who teach science-centric courses. Brown emphasized that the student evaluations impact faculty members' careers, so when they receive a negative review filled with bias unrelated to the course itself, it could lead to losing a job.
