Abstract
It’s understood that diverse scholars bring new ideas and novelty to STEM, but those ideas are not as accepted as the ideas of white male-scholars. Keeping Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) students in their programs and on the path to success is important and race-based research in academic integrity needs to be done in Canada, as current data is insufficient to study the relationship between race and education, This paper will discuss the experiences of BIPOC students in comparison to white peers, and how the Canadian BIPOC student experience compares to data from other countries
