Acknowledgments
We gratefully acknowledge financial support for this research from the WT Grant Foundation, the Lumina Foundation, and the Center for Ethics and Education. Sara Goldrick-Rab was the co-PI for this research project, and her expertise and support allowed for every aspect of this project to unfold. She deserves all the credit for its success.
