open access: yesBMC Medical Education, 2015
The proportion of black, Latino, and Native American faculty in U.S. academic medical centers has remained almost unchanged over the last 20 years. Some authors credit the "minority tax"-the burden of extra responsibilities placed on minority faculty in the name of diversity.

The decolonisation of mathematics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
We describe a mainstream "universalist" approach to the understanding of mathematics. We then conduct a systematic (but not exhaustive) review of the academic literature on the decolonisation of mathematics and identify how this challenges the universalist view.

Linear Redshift Distortions: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesin "The Evolving Universe" ed. D. Hamilton, Kluwer Academic, p. 185-275 (1998), 1997
Redshift maps of galaxies in the Universe are distorted by the peculiar velocities of galaxies along the line of sight. The amplitude of the distortions on large, linear scales yields a measurement of the linear redshift distortion parameter, which is $\beta \approx \Omega_0^{0.6}/b$ in standard cosmology with cosmological density $\Omega_0$ and light ...

Although minor misconduct is normative in adolescence, such behavior may be met with punishment in American schools. As part of a punitive disciplinary approach, teachers may give adolescents official infractions for minor misconduct-that is, a minor ...

Small strange stars and marginally stable orbit in Newtonian theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
It is shown that for very rapidly rotating low mass strange stars the marginally stable orbit is located above the stellar surface. This effect is explained by the very important role of the oblateness of the rotating strange star.

Supporting underrepresented minority women in academic dermatology,

open access: yesInternational Journal of Women's Dermatology, 2020
The lack of underrepresented minorities in medicine (UIM) in dermatology has been well established, but the challenges faced by UIM women in dermatology have not yet been explored. UIM women belong simultaneously to more than one underrepresented group and therefore face complex challenges that are common to women and underrepresented minorities.

Effective one-body approach to the relativistic two-body problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The relativistic 2-body problem, much like the non-relativistic one, is reduced to describing the motion of an effective particle in an external field. The concept of a relativistic reduced mass and effective particle energy introduced some 30 years ago ...

Academic Lobification: Low-performance Control Strategy for Long-planed Academic Purpose [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Academic lobification refers to a collection of academic performance control strategies, methods, and means that a student deliberately hides academic behaviors, or deliberately lowers academic performance, or deliberately delays academic returns for a certain long-term purpose, but does not produce academic risks.
