How the Ph.D. Project, and 45 colleges, became a target of the Trump administration

When Leyland Lucas was a Ph.D. student at Rutgers University, there weren't a lot of professors in the business department who looked like him. He's Black and originally from Guyana, in South America.He says a small nonprofit, called the Ph.D. Project, helped him successfully navigate and complete his Ph.D."I am incredibly grateful to the program, which was fulfilling a very critical role," says Lucas, who is now a dean at the University of Guyana.For about 30 years, the Ph.D. Project has provided support, mentorship and guidance to students from underrepresented groups who are earning doctoral degrees in business.
