male-female ratio that isreflective of the local work force), there are laws that prevent such goals from unduly harmingnon-targeted groups, from hiring people who are unqualified for the job, or to have rigid quotasfor any job or position (ACLU of Southern California, 2019). That is, while women might haveit easier in a certain job interview at a certain institution, it is typically to account for biasesthroughout the entire pipeline of their STEM career as indicated in the literature and analysisdone in this paper. Such a provision does not in fact make it easier for women in STEM. Suchsentiments are harmful for women as indicated by many in the survey who feel “unsure ofthemselves”, “drive(n) … to do better to prove (their) worth”, “look(ed
