"This collection of articles, many including first-person accounts, reflects the experiences of women and people of color as they negotiate entry to STEM fields. As such, it is a much-needed contribution to the literature, a book that should be required reading for STEM faculty and administrators especially at predominantly white institutions who truly want to make their departments and universities more inclusive. Highly recommended."

"The partnership between Dr. McGee and Dr. Robinson has given STEM diversity work an expanded, multidisciplinary lens that allows us to consider both research and practitioners' experiences. This book shares the unique perspectives of scholars from across the nation, encompassing a variety of backgrounds. It's a rich outcome of the 'Diversifying STEM' panels at Vanderbilt and related work, and a resource that can be used to better inform our practice."
Renetta Garrison Tull, Vice Chancellor of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, UC Davis
«“Diversifying STEM is a compilation of sound and comprehensive research…accessible to multiple stakeholders both in and outside of the field of STEM education. Parents, teachers, administrators, policymakers, college students and researchers could benefit from this work.”»
Crystal Hill Morton, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, School of Education
«“Whether examining colorblind liberalism or tracing the paths of Black, Afro-Brazilian, and Pakistani women through science and mathematics at American universities, a multidisciplinary team of authors present a range of perspectives and analysis on students of color in STEM fields. Diversifying STEM brings together top scholars on topics of vital importance to today’s educators, especially those who want to increase the number of qualified STEM students at their institutions.”»
Brian A. Burt, University of Wisconsin-Madison
"The etymology of the word diversity aligns with mathematics and science in its focus on variation. This book offers insight into how variation in identity influences the experiences and socialization of students in STEM education. Building on theories and concepts from across the social sciences, the book’s contributors engage the STEM opportunity to learn literature in novel fashion."
William F. Tate, Edward Mallinckrodt Distinguished Professor in Arts & Sciences, Washington University in St. Louis
