However, after comparing the responses on the pre- and post-surveys, the interest in attending CSUB increased as a result of participating in the activity. Inthe pre-survey, most students indicated that CSUB was only a backup plan, or that they wouldtake lower division courses and then transfer to another university. In the post-survey, somestudents had similar responses, but others had responses such as “[a] college education is acollege education, no matter where it is”, “[t]here are good programs here and it's local”, and“[t]his college has a good Engineering program.” These responses indicate that the outreachprogram increased awareness

Again, planning for worst-case conditions, if we were to cease all of ourprogramming efforts after 5-10 years, we would still achieve at or near 30% female for a periodof time (5-10 years) before the effects of our intervention wear off.
