Students from marginalized communities often gravitate toward staff who share their background or a common language other than English, while lack of staff diversity sometimes inhibits these students from seeking help or using the library.
“Students from marginalized communities often gravitate toward staff members who offer the comfort and familiarity of a shared background or a common language other than English, while a lack of diversity among the staff sometimes inhibits these students from seeking help or even using the library (Bonnet & McAlexander, 2012;Elteto & Jackson, 2008;Long, 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
