DeCal: Hidden Intersections: Addressing Systemic Bias in STEM
The objectives of the Decal is tog gain appreciation for how women, people of color, other marginalized groups have contributed to physical sciences/STEM, learn how to analyze historical narratives critically, gain a better understanding of the challenges for underrepresented students in STEM and what we can do about it. Examine how culture, ethnicity, race, and gender intersect with the practice of science and consider how to be ethical scientists.
