SIs often attend classes and make an effort to bevisible. The SI program has contributed to the increased 4-year graduation rate of 22% andincreased 6-year graduation rates of 17% over the past 10 years. The persistence from first yearto second year in the College has increased 11% over the past 12 years. Upon further studies,there were increased concerns in correlating students' academic performance to SI sessionattendance. Research links students’ success to their science identity and self-efficacy [10].Science identity pertains to a dynamic perspective of oneself

ancient Hindu texts such as the Manusmriti, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Vedas, andUpanishads, provide moral and ethical justifications for the caste system through the concept ofreincarnation and spiritual purity/pollution [8], [10], [11]. These religious affiliations have madethe caste system difficult to challenge because it is perceived as divinely ordained [7], [9].Historically, the caste system legitimized the oppression of Dalit communities, relegating them tothe lowest social roles and subjecting them to severe discrimination and exclusion, such as beingdenied access to education [8], [11].
