Our program, The High Achievers in STEM(HAIS), utilized the concept of a learning community as the central nexus for providing servicesto students in order to recruit and retain students in five STEM degree programs. The HAISprogram was funded by a 5-year National Science Foundation S-STEM grant. A longitudinalmixed methods study took place from fall 2018 to spring 2023 to examine the effectiveness ofthe HAIS program. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which the S-STEMprogram met the following goals: 1. Increase opportunities for

Conversation?IntroductionOver the course of the past decade, the academic community has increasingly recognized themental health challenges faced by graduate students as a pivotal area of concern (Evans, et al.,2018; Nature, 2019). This recognition is in response to findings that suggest graduate students,especially those in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) disciplines, are at ahigher risk for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, and stress (Bork & Mondisa, 2022;Diezel, et al., 2013; Nagy, et al., (2019) Saravanan & Wilks, 2014). Findings from Bork andMondisa's (2022) recent scoping literature review attribute this heightened risk, in part, to theunique pressures and stressors inherent to the academic and research
