Reviews

Bandwidth Recovery was first published in 2017, just as I completed my term as President of Morehouse College. My only regret is that it was not published sooner, because I would have been armed with the perfect vocabulary and playbook for improving the living, learning and working environments for all students, faculty, and staff. It is now axiomatic – victims of systemic marginalization and “othering” pay a much higher bandwidth tax than most. Thus, any campus leaders who are determined to position everyone to optimize their skill sets, mindsets, and toolsets must read this book. And without even mentioning the current controversies, Verschelden provides the best way to clarify the value proposition of all offices devoted to diversity, equity and inclusion – that is, to lower the bandwidth taxes and restore the cognitive capacities of those with academic and life profiles that most warrant it. Rather than controversial, that is America at her best! John Silvanus Wilson, Jr., Managing Director of the Open Leadership Project at the MIT Media Lab, former President of Morehouse College, USA, and Author of Hope and Healing: Black Colleges and the Future of American Democracy.
