. NOVA and Mason have a responsibility to lead the way in finding solutionsto the transfer problem, because we have one of the largest partnerships of this kind. Significantresearch has already been reported on the topic of transfer students. For example, see theTransfer Playbook by the Aspen Institute: (https://ccrc.tc.columbia.edu/media/k2/attachments/transfer-playbook-essential-practices.pdf).Mason and NOVA are relying on documented best practices to design and implementADVANCE. We are drawing on these resources to design ADVANCE, with the goal of buildinga blueprint for Virginia and a transfer model that is scalable across the country. The impact onour nation will be profound if we can dramatically improve student success rates for

Consider the sentence “I am”. With this opening adapted from a poem by Richard O. Moore (2010), we emphasize howsome of the simplest aspects of the human experience contain vast complexity: identity;belonging; education; justice.

Her current work focuses on supporting and evaluating the construction of collaborative communities and building evaluation capacity within organizations and large-scale programs. In all efforts Adrienne works to (a) truly understand the purpose and needs for the evaluation or research undertaking, (b) develop feedback cycles that support continuous program improvement, (c) make implementation and impact data available and interpretable for program implementers, and (d) select the most rigorous, yet feasible analytic designs that are tailored to the unique needs of each program context.

We will begin by sharing some background on Camp Reach and theoriginal elements of its design which have remained relatively constant over the last 20+years. In addition, we will share some brief information on other outreach programs at WPI,since participation in these outreach programs is one of the main sources of the touchpoints wediscuss in our research.Next, we will discuss the study design of this particular research. Camp Reach was originallydeveloped with the intent of conducting longitudinal research. Therefore, the program
