10) Talk with the URM alumni from the programs get on Twitter, Linkedin, etc and send someone a message - most of us will respond
11) pay close attention to what’s been displayed on the walls
12) Pay attention if the PD encourages you to talk with URMs in the program
13) somethings you shouldn’t have to ask , should be offered , having kids, lifestyle , personal stuff, what they are doing around culture change
14) Are non-URMs engaging you & appear happy to support you there —( marker of social isolation )
15) Do people that train there want to come back after their fellowship etc
