Due to the suggestion of Lionel McPherson in comments at this post, I am disaggregating the non-white category of this previous post into three lists: "Hispanic," "Asian or Pacific Islander," and "Black" graduates of PhD programs in philosophy, per graduating institution. Importantly, the data only cover permanent residents and citizens of the United States (thanks to Brian Weatherson for pointing this out). Because of that fact I use data from the United States census as a point of comparison above each list.
Note that the data on graduates was provided by the National Center for Science Engineering Statistics thanks to Eric Schwitzgebel's efforts (see here and here). Specifically, the NCSES supplied the number of racial and ethnic minority graduates from doctoral philosophy programs in the United States between the years 1973 and 2014 (but not broken down by year).
Below, I list the programs in the United States with a higher than average (mean) percentage of graduates from each of these categories, where the mean is taken for 96 programs in the United States (I omitted institutions from the NCSES data that no longer offer doctoral degrees in philosophy)…
Two notes of caution:
1) These data are from 1973 to 2014, and so give only a longterm view of diversity. All programs are likely to have increased in diversity and many programs likely look much better with a more shortterm view (thanks to Chris Stephens for this point).
2) Programs may be above average without this deviation from average being statistically significant (thanks to David Wallace for this point).
Thanks are also due to Elizabeth (who I am not sure would want me to specify her last name), for helping me to realize I should be listing programs above the mean, rather than above the overall %.
Here are philosophy PhD programs organized by % of Hispanic graduates (among permanent residents or citizens of the United States), listing only those 33 programs with a greater or equal than mean percentage of non-white graduates for this time period (1973-2014). According to United States census data sourced from Wikipedia, Hispanic (of any race) people made up 16.35% of the United States population in 2010, and 4.39% in 1970.
