N2  - This paper reflects on the experience of the 1999–2002 minority  pipeline program (MPP) at the University of California, Riverside. With  support from the American Economic Association, the MPP identifi ed  students of color interested in economics, let them explore economic  issues aff ecting minority communities, and encouraged them to  consider postgraduate work in economics. The MPP’s successes and  failures can be traced to the shifting balance in California’s racialized  political economy, especially a state ballot initiative forbidding the  use of applicant race or ethnicity in University of California admission  decisions, and to the transformation of economics itself, especially at  the level of doctoral training. The MPP experience may be of relevance  for other eff orts to increase racial/ethnic diversity in social science  disciplines
