The purpose of this paper was to examine reflections of women of color in a predominately White institution (PWI). Viewpoints were gathered from three faculty members and one graduate student of color. These women’s collective and individual voices emphasized that we are no longer “separate but equal,” but have evolved into an “equal but not equitable” society and are trying to figure out how to fix this problem. Real-life results revealed that these faculty members and the student have experienced difficulties in some way based on implicit bias and equity at a PWI. Furthermore, results indicated that equity is only achieved when everyone is willing to admit that it does not exist. Knowing this can transform culture and forge inclusivity.
