Resumen
Using Steele’s work on stereotype threat among undergraduate students, we are conducting a study to reduce barriers and mitigate factors that may prevent students of color from completing dual majors in STEM and elementary education. This paper focuses on strategies for recruiting and retaining students of color into the Wyoming Interns to Teacher Scholars (WITS) Noyce program through formal and informal mentoring and summer internships. Drawing from the extant literature on mentoring and mitigating stereotype threat, we strategize about how to build programs that promote student resilience, academic success, and communities of trust.
