Further, a comparison of Mann Whitney U tests revealed that students of color broadly (Mean rank= 182.46) were significantly less likely to have encountered the term 'omics' than their Caucasian peers (Mean rank =214.22, z=-4.07, p <0.001, r=-0.19, Table .2). While this effect was present for Asian students in isolation from other students of color, the difference between students of color and caucasian students was significantly stronger than for Asian students alone (see Table .1 in comparison), and the effect size was larger. Therefore, we determined the lack of familiarity with the term 'omics' was significantly different for students of color compared to a phenomenon affecting Asian students specifically. There were no significant differences in the final course scores for students of color broadly (Mean rank=123.94) when compared to Caucasian peers (Mean rank=124.98, z= -0.12, p > 0.50,r= -0.01).
