Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion in Our Professions: A Thin and Leaky Pipeline
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The world is moving forward and our leaders appear to be set to make Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) a household name. The DEI abbreviation has become a frequent topic appearing on many agendas, it appears in publications and lectures, studies are devoted to it, symposiums are being organized, committees are sprouting up, and politicians say they are committed to it. There is no doubt, DEI has become a topic for the working and political worlds. Governments, universities, and many organisations are setting quotas to achieve DEI. Yet, data shows that in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) professions, DEI is lagging, thus begging the questions: “Where is DEI standing in STEM?” and “Why should we, as STEM researchers and as a not for profit scientific society be devoted to DEI?”

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
