The theory of racializedorganizations defines the following four major tenets explaining the manifestations of racism inorganizations: (1) racialized organizations enhance or diminish the agency of racial groups; (2)racialized organizations legitimate the unequal distribution of resources; (3) whiteness is acredential; and (4) the decoupling of formal rules from organizational practice is often racialized(Ray, 2019). Our work emphasizes the need to understand how organizations institutionalize racialinequities as a starting point for re-envisioning change efforts, structures, and models.

There are numerous methods to improve the design of a pingpong robot. One of the best methods to build a ping pong robot is to use readily available materialsthat can be quickly replicated and scaled up.A PVC pipe is the most essential mechanism for keeping a steady stream of ping pong balls. ThePVC piping can handle a variety of sizes. A ping pong ball is typically 40 millimeters (mm) in size[2]. The PVC that would suit the average ping pong ball size is 1.5" PVC piping with an insidediameter of 41.27 mm [3]. This permits any mistakes that occur

Parental influence starts at birth, and children's interest in STEMdevelopment can begin before elementary school. It is heavily influenced by parents and theenvironment surrounding the child [4], mainly since children spend most of their waking hoursin out-of-school settings [5]. Additionally, exposure to engineering through toys at a young agecan impact children's interest in STEM [6]; [7]. While studies of school-based engineeringlearning are also critical, parents typically have a much more advanced understanding of theirchildren than teachers [4]. Parents can help

Nine individual U.S. states have sincebanned affirmative action practices. These bans extend to college admissions, where applicantcharacteristics such as race and gender can no longer be taken into consideration. Past researchon university enrollment in all degree programs has shown a decrease in enrollment of Blackstudents, both overall and at public institutions specifically, associated with state-levelaffirmative action bans [2].

For Harvey & Green [1], the notion of quality can beunderstood as exceptional (special, very high standard), as perfection (no-defects), as fitnessfor purpose (meets requirements, fulfills objectives), as value for money (efficiency), and astransformative (qualitative change). Furthermore, quality in HE is linked to regulatoryframeworks and monitoring processes [2].
