@Napaaqtuk Excellent point. Institutional and demographic researchers need to carefully consider this issue to ensure individual protections.

If you didn’t get into graduate school this year, take some time for yourself, but don’t give up!! Members of our team did not get into a PhD program the first time they applied.

Multiple-choice questions get criticized for being unchallenging. To avoid that trap, the professor taught his students about Bloom's Taxonomy, requiring them to aim for higher-order thinking. https://t.co/2EQw0Tbyd6

STEM faculty, do your students fully utilize your office hours? Supplementing office hours with a “course center” may increase the likelihood that students seek help. Article below: https://t.co/6wgK3solYH

STEM faculty should think about innovative ways to reduce textbook costs for students. It is worth looking into and evaluating open-access options. https://t.co/zM46C2268G

An important call to action from David Asai @HHMINEWS - "Diversity without inclusion is an empty gesture. Inclusion is a feeling of belonging, and so creating an empowering, embracing, egalitarian environment starts with the heart." https://t.co/YiQgykZ7Sw

[Dr. Arnaldo Díaz @ADiaz_PhD]

Embrace being different! Your culture, life experiences, skills, ideas, & even your accent make you unique. Remember, no one else brings this distinctive combination to the table. Be proud of who are & let it empower your success. #Diversity #FGLI #firstgen

Let us honor the legacy of Dr. King today (and every day) by helping others and working to make a positive impact in our communities and in the world.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

I’ve always drawn inspiration from what Dr. King called life’s most persistent and urgent question: "What are you doing for others?" Let’s honor his legacy by standing up for what is right in our communities and taking steps to make a positive impact on the world.
