Microagressions
The work of Dr. Kevin Nadal, Dr. Stanley Sue and Dr. D.W. Sue is a good place to start.
A short article about Dr. D.W. Sue's book. The ever present case of "What did you say?"
Overcoming Microagressions in Educational Institutions. Dr. D. W. Sue. Nov 2010. It's a 2 hour Lecture, but the first minutes per se are highly recommendable.
A short article about Dr. D.W. Sue's book. The ever present case of "What did you say?"
To combat microaggressions, Sue said it’s important for diversity executives to increase awareness. Make the invisible visible; then provide training and allow the voices of minorities to be heard. Focus groups to share workforce experiences also can help.And the book itself: Microagression in everyday life. Race, Gender and Sexual Orientation

Outreach
The web Pathways to Science seeks to connect underrepresented groups with STEM programs, funding, mentoring and resources.It's an initiative of the Institute for Broadening Participation a non-profit organization created to design and implement strategies to increase access to STEM education and careers for diverse underrepresented groups.
Science Education for New Civic Engagements and Responsibilities (SENCER) was initiated in 2001 under the National Science Foundation's CCLI national dissemination track. Since then, SENCER has established and supported an ever-growing community of faculty, students, academic leaders, and others to improve undergraduate STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) education by connecting learning to critical civic questions. SENCER is the signature program of the National Center for Science and Civic Engagement, which was established in affiliation with Harrisburg University of Science and Technology.
Ocean Discovery Institute is a Non-profit that seeks to transform students' lifes through science

Tips for Teachers: Sensitivity to Women in the Contemporary Classroom: From The Derek Bok Center for Teaching and Learning at Harvard University, this article provides helpful strategies for instructors concerned about gender issues in the classroom. Several specific recommendations given to insure an inclusive environment.
Academic Support for Women in Science and Engineering: Susan Montgomery (Chemical Engineering) and Martha Cohen Barrett (Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education) present critical factors that have been found to influence the learning experiences of undergraduate women studying science and engineering. They also offer suggestions for improving the academic environment that are applicable to all students.

Well-rounded students
Heather Wilson analyses how narrow the curricula of American students is getting on the Washington Post opinion article Our Superficial Scholars.
The Association of American Colleges and Universities presents its own view of A well-rounded Education for a Flat World including Promoting and Protecting Mental Health as Flourishing.
Our great universities seem to have redefined what it means to be an exceptional student. They are producing top students who have given very little thought to matters beyond their impressive grasp of an intense area of study.
Perhaps faculty members are themselves more narrowly specialized because of pressure to publish original work in ever more obscure journals.Richard H. Hersh proposes A Well-Rounded Education for a Flat World at the Educational Leadership magazine. The draft of the project can be found at the Bringing Theory to Practice website.
