I was talking to this person who said something that made me uncomfortable. The kind of thing that is best to think in your head instead of saying out loud.

I still didn't know what to say.
I awkwardly stared and shrugged. As they continued to talk.

"Race matters in higher education." - Lorelle L. Espinosa (VP for Research at ACE) #EquityMatters

Pretty good way to get the morning started!
Key Finding #1: Our populace is becoming more educated, as well as more racially and ethnically diverse -- driven largely in part by an increase of Hispanic students. #EquityMatters
Unsurprisingly, Black students have higher debt loads and have a lower completion rate for credentials. #EquityMatters
