Most of Dr. Long’s research has focused on the academic and socialexperiences of Black and Latinx groups as well as student-athletes in STEM fields. He helped to leadresearch, funded by the NCAA Innovations in Research and Practice Grant, to improve the well-being ofthe student-athlete through support of their career readiness. He also helped to secure funding from NSF(award # 2024973) to examine the potential benefit of using critical narratives
) - ability to connect choices, actions, and consequences to ethical decision-making. One of the most important provisions of the UCC is that it allows students whosuccessfully complete core curriculum courses at one institution to transfer (up to) the entire setof completed courses to another public institution of higher education without the need to repeatany core courses. Students who transfer without completing the whole (42-SCH) core curriculumalso receive credit for each of the core courses they satisfy. Although the studies included in theCUC may vary by institution, every higher education institution's core curriculum in our statemust consist of 6-SCH of Foundational Component Areas. These courses are the focus of oursharing

The first was academic success and retention as measured bythe participants maintaining a grade point average of at least 3.0 on a 4.0
discriminated, too.” (P8) “I think the first thing is not to make this so awkward because I find myself often not sure of when to disclose to people that I am hard of hearing. If I am at a phone interview, I know that I have to be in a quiet space. Also, I can't use a speakerphone because it sometimes was not clear. I have an experience where I am on a phone call with the call quality is really bad. I have to ask them to repeat. You know it makes the interview not go very well.” (P5) “I did have an interview with the Department of Defense. They made a conditional job offer but withdrew, because of ethical concerns. They encouraged me to apply to different departments within the Department of Defense. I turned it down
. Smith presented study after study on this most obvious national issue. One study showed hownames alone influenced whether the committee thought a candidate was qualified or not. In thatstudy, black sounding names were rated routinely lower for comparable qualifications versuscandidates with white sounding names.Dr. Smith produced university-specific numbers, reflecting below national averages across theboard. She made an adamant point to suggest “…tenure was broken… from every perspective– theoretical, practical, moral, and ethical, the tenure process and those participating in itare exercising prejudice and bias in their decision making…”At this tier 1, high research university, the issue is apparent.

characteristics, meaning that the pedagogicalpractices are unique to students’ cultural, religious, demographic, and gender differences. Thesecharacteristics set students apart from one another and their educators. Therefore, when ateacher’s instructions reflect characteristics of only one group of students, the other students aredenied an equal opportunity to learn [16]. Using CRP takes into consideration a student’straditions, linguistics, value and ethical systems. CRP provides teachers with empirical andtheoretical constructs that support their efforts to lower existing barriers and opportunity gaps [17]- [19] for the increasingly diverse public-school student population in all educational platforms.CRP’s objective is to support students in obtaining

The Research Studio included an introduction of tissuetest systems and overall EFRI project goals, completion of laboratory safety training, anintroduction to research ethics, technical writing, and basic laboratory practices, participation ina team building exercise, discussion of the projects to which each student would be exposed, anddiscussion of the expectations for and of RPs. Once RPs completed the Research Studio, each RPwas paired with a graduate student mentor and the mentor’s project.
