Abstract
Abstract The “Like Me: Diversifying the Educator Workforce” program was developed at Lourdes University to address the disparate proportion of teachers of color in local classrooms as compared to the students of color. To gauge the impact of “Like Me” recruitment efforts, faculty at Lourdes University conducted a qualitative study eliciting information about how students applied to the program, factors that influenced their decision-making, and reasons behind their selection of education as a career. The findings underlined the strong influence that trusted adults play in the recruitment process. Additionally, financial support was an important factor in facilitating enrollment in the program.
