Education, 2024“Someone has invested in me to do this”: Supporting Low-Income Students to Persist in STEM through an NSF S-STEM grantThere have been numerous, widespread national efforts to address the challenge of a growingneed for STEM professionals. In a 2012 report, the President’s Council of Advisors on Scienceand Technology suggested that the United States needed to produce one million additionalcollege graduates in STEM fields by 2022 in order to keep up with the expected growth inSTEM positions [1]. Between 1970 and 2018, STEM occupations grew 79% [2] and areexpected to continue to grow 10.8% between 2021 and 2031 [3]. Evidence suggests that thenumber of STEM degrees is increasing, as is the diversity of those obtaining STEM

By focusing on external evaluation as an integral component of aneducational system, this paper seeks to highlight the value of this seemingly “peripheral work”(Lederman, 2019). This in turn raises critical questions about how power dynamics and otherasymmetric relationships can be exposed early in the development of an academic plan.
