INTRODUCTIONWe describe the changes taken place to broaden the participation of URM (underrepresentedminority) students at UTA (the University of Texas at Arlington). Women in certain STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields are still underrepresented, andhence we also describe the changes taken place to include the participation by women. Inparticular we describe the changes taken place in the Mathematics Department at UTA, theupdate on deliberate efforts started in the fall semester of 2005 and how three
