This column delves into the impact that representation holds in shaping a student's perception of their ability to be successful. To combat the homogeneity of representation in standard statistics content, the author created and maintains the CURV – connecting, uplifting, and recognizing voices – to introduce students to scholars to whom they can relate. Through a weekly activity of Statistician of the Day the author introduces students to scholars who are traditionally underrepresented in statistics and data science. The column concludes with how to contribute to CURV. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
