This article describes my prior work as co-founder and director of the William & Mary Scholars Undergraduate Research Experience (WMSURE), a cross-departmental and cross-school program at the College of William & Mary, designed to support underrepresented undergraduate students in research. I focus first on how this program paved the way for more underrepresented students to major in and do research in linguistics at the College of William & Mary in a way that work done just within the linguistics program could not have done alone. I also describe how, as a result of my research focus on culturally and linguistically diverse students, my role as director of WMSURE expanded into work with admissions and development to recruit students who were interested in linguistics as well as to raise funds to support their research. I detail how a linguistic lens on social justice has provided the platform for spearheading this endeavor to promote the success of underrepresented students and thereby foster broader inclusion and equity efforts at William & Mary and across the university as a whole, providing a model for other linguists to promote similar endeavors elsewhere.

在语言研究和整个大学中吸引和支持代表性不足的本科生

本文描述了我之前作为威廉和玛丽学者本科研究体验 (WMSURE) 的联合创始人和主任的工作，这是威廉玛丽学院的跨部门和跨学校项目，旨在支持代表性不足的本科生进行研究. 我首先关注这个项目如何为更多代表性不足的学生在威廉玛丽学院主修语言学并进行研究铺平了道路，而这种方式仅在语言学项目中是无法单独完成的。我还描述了我的研究重点是文化和语言多样化的学生，我作为 WMSURE 主任的角色如何扩展到招生和发展工作，以招募对语言学感兴趣的学生，并筹集资金支持他们的研究.
