Abstract
To facilitate the entry of members of "visible minority" and Aboriginal groups into the teaching profession, the Faculty of Education at the University of Ottawa implemented an "Access" admissions policy in 1994. This study examines how people of colour admitted through this preferential admissions policy are affected by the discursive formations of merit, deficit, and multiculturalism. Furthermore, this study explores the political and pedagogical practices utilized by Access -admitted student teachers of colour to manage their presence in the educational system. Interviews conducted with six people show that being admitted through "special measures" makes it difficult for them to establish their presence as legitimate participants. Their "questionable" presence is further exacerbated by the everyday reality of racism they feel they experience as members of "visible" minority groups. Their ambiguous positioning is negotiated through a number of strategies including challenging, resisting, and/or assimilating into the structures that marginalize them.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
