Abstract: Over 50 years ago, concerns about the adequacy of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) talent in the United States were the catalyst
to develop programs to ensure that the STEM workforce would be adequate to meet
scientific challenges. To date, there have been considerable investments in these
programs. To determine where we go from here requires appraising where we stand
and reviewing how far we have come. This article presents reflections from my
experiences conducting both research and evaluations on broadening participation in
STEM in the United States.
