Abstract

This symposium features four scholar-practitioners of color working across the STEM-Medicine (STEM-M) pipeline who are actively engaging their cultural intuition (Delgado Bernal, 1998) to create access to higher education by challenging dominant pathways, practices, and cultures related to college readiness/preparedness, success, persistence, and the workforce transition.

Session Objectives

  • Challenge systemic barriers in diverse educational settings, such as deficit-frameworks and their associated normative practices
  • Promote asset-based approaches and frameworks to achieve better equity, access, and opportunity for students of color in STEM-M pathways in K-16 settings
  • Facilitate discussion with the audience on how they can replicate a similar approach of change at their respective institution
