feedback on the ungraded classroom is tabulated and considered. Since theungraded approach began in 2019, prior to the COVID-19 SARS-2 pandemic, we felt it fitting tocompare pre-pandemic student response to post-pandemic student response. Figure 5 shows thecompilation of several years’ worth (2019-2022) of 5-point Likert Scale Surveys on ungradedclassrooms. The 5-point scale has two points on favorable, two points on unfavorable, and aneutral option. In Figure 5, both the moderately and strongly favorable data is combined acrossthe pre- and post-pandemic timelines. We include Spring of 2020 in the pre-pandemic paradigmand Fall of 2020 in post-pandemic. The ungraded approach is generally well received bystudents, echoing findings by others [33

Maher et al. (2020) used SCCT to understand thedeparture of students from graduate programs, where they found that factors that influence astudent’s self-efficacy, such as advisor support, have a direct impact on their decision to continueor leave their program. In a similar manner, research by Wilkins-Yel et al. (2022) highlighted theimportance of advisor support for the persistence of women of color as they dealt with personalchallenges during their STEM graduate studies. These findings

GradWIE welcomes people ofall gender identities to support the personal and professional wellbeing of graduate studentsthrough peer support, the creation of safe spaces, social events, and diverse resources. We choseto focus on women because they are a minority within the College of Engineering at Penn State,as reflected in the enrollment numbers of women from 2017 to 2021 seen in Table

The methodology is based on the collection and analysis of data from an online survey.This paper examines the outcomes from this survey directed at first-year undergraduateuniversity students, conducted in September 2022.

as a way of reclaiming our ways of being after our forced removal toIndian Territory in the mid-1800s (Conley 2007). Early treaties with the U.S. government oftenemphasized that education “appropriate” for Indigenous students would be provided as part of the terms(Klug & Whitfield, 2003). However, education was then turned into a weapon used against IndigenousNations by the U.S. government as a means to force their assimilation (Brayboy, 2005). The Federal Indian Boarding School Initiative ran from 1819 to 1969 and consisted of 408 schools across37 states including 21 schools in Alaska and 7 schools in Hawaii (Newland, 2022). These schools had acommon goal of assimilating Indigenous children through education and they pursued that goal
