Written mostly as an engaging series of vignettes, this story invites its audience to examine the \"underbelly\" of this successful program. It reveals to readers what lies at the heart of creating and sustaining a STEM retention program that is as inviting as it is vital. The program's practice of reflection helps to build students' self-efficacy and self-understanding. This book addresses the problem of merely throwing resources at a program to have it only achieve mild success.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMost STEM retention\/support programs offer a litany of \"things\" they think are necessary for students, especially traditionally underserved students, to survive in STEM. We contend that our program goes beyond merely throwing money at a need, to critically assessing the need through the lens of inclusive practices. Our program attempts to engage with the whole selves of the students we serve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sonji Johnson-Anderson,Ranjana Lingutla,Margaret Riley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0323904696\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780323904698\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/04\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Sonji Johnson-Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49096671461631,"sku":"9780323904698","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/empowering-underrepresented-students-in-science-sonji-johnson-anderson-9780323904698","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
