Magazine recognizes diversity on campus

Texas State University has been named among the nation’s “Best Employers for Diversity” by Forbes magazine.

The bi-weekly business magazine listed Texas State No. 112 nationally on its 2019 “Best Employers for Diversity” list, and 5th overall in Texas. Texas State ranked ahead of such well-known corporations as Toyota North America, JPMorgan Chase and Google. Of the 500 employers that made the cut, Texas State was one of only two Texas institutions of higher education represented.

Forbes worked with statistics firm Statista to cull data from a survey of 50,000 employees working for companies employing at least 1,000 people within the U.S. to develop the rankings.
