We will continueto expand our data size and we will continue to collaborate with more local community partnersand student organizations within Wright College to organize volunteering opportunities. Withmore activities and larger data size, we will compare the impact of all terms on the STEMidentity and STEM efficacy of volunteers.V.

In spiteof these institutional, structural, and procedural constraints, the student co-authors in this paperdeveloped a commitment to RT mainly due to the spaces that their HES graduate programopened to do so and the guidance of faculty committed to RT. Hence, as expected, their RTefforts had to be implemented somewhat haphazardly, often circumventing established academicpractices but without placing themselves in trouble. Other students, while deeply committed toRT, found themselves prioritizing traditional academic writing, valued by academic

. Toooften, educational institutions uphold hegemonic norms and the status quo. Howard et al.describe that “education has reinforced structures of disadvantage rather than challenging suchstructures,” adding that “education appears to maintain rather than change broad social andeconomic structures” [1, p. 2]. Carpini and Keeter describe service learning as “a collaborativeeffort to address a community problem” [2, p. 635].
