As a chem-to-math major & now a STEM higher ed researcher, I resonated lots with Ego & Bowen reflecting on the qualms of navigating STEM culture in college. They remind me of my relationship with my college & present-day best friend Isha. We met in a first-year dorm full of STEM majors 20 years ago.

Excellent perspective from @thejosevilson.com pushing back on community-building as a ‘soft skill’ in math learning: “There is nothing 'soft' about trying to build community. It’s actually hard to figure out what’s going on w/ a particular student that isn’t allowing them to connect to a problem.”

“When Ss are constantly exposed to the trope of the isolated genius, they may struggle to see themselves as capable mathematicians. However, when educators use pop culture to prompt inquiry, inviting students to question, connect & critique, they create a space where belonging becomes possible.”
