Abstract	While New England's population remains predominantly non-Hispanic white, the region has diversified considerably in recent years, as most population growth has occurred among minority groups. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, between 2010 and 2018, New England's non-Hispanic white population shrank by 3.1%. During this same period, the region's minority populations grew significantly: the Black population increased by 13.2%, the number of Hispanics rose by 29.4%, and the Asian population expanded by 29.5% (U.S. Census Bureau). Researchers project that this general demographic pattern will persist. This report draws from multiple data sources to provide measures of equity, diversity, and inclusion in college readiness, access and enrollment, college affordability, post-college success, and instructional staff composition across New England's postsecondary institutions. The purpose of this report is to: (1) Investigate the condition of equity in New England higher education; (2) Identify gaps that may hinder the achievement of equity in the region; and and (3) Demonstrate the need for increased support of policies and practices that will foster more equitable, diverse, and inclusive systems, structures and institutions of higher education throughout New England.
