Dr. Reginald DesRoches: Rice Universityโs first African-American provost
HOUSTON โ In 2019, Rice University announced the promotion of the dean of engineering, Reginald DesRoches, Ph.D, to provost. This was a historic moment for the university as Dr. DesRoches became the first African-American provost, especially at a university that didnโt allow blacks until 1965. In honor of Black History Month, Khambrel Marshall sat with the newly appointed provost to talk about Dr. DesRochesโs childhood, his legacy and making history in 2020. Born in Haiti to New York, mechanical engineering, dean, provost; thatโs a good story. People are focus on the fact that Iโm the first black dean and the first black provost.
