The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) recently selected 24 schools in the first round of the Inclusive Excellence initiative. This program aims to help increase the capacity of colleges and universities to effectively engage all students so that they can be successful in science, especially undergraduates who enter four-year institutions via nontraditional pathways. The money will be spent to teach faculty inclusive teaching practices, commit to culturally competent and identity-conscious communication, revise introductory curricula, and incorporate early research experiences.
