gender choice of “Other”was excluded due to the limited number of degrees awarded, reported only for 2019. Our“Native” category reflects combining the racial reporting options of “American Indian/AlaskaNative” and “Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander.” Similarly, our “Multi” category reflectscombining “Foreign,” “Multiracial,” and “Unknown.” Other racial categories are used asreported by ASEE (e.g., “Asian,” “Black,” “Hispanic,” and “White”). Procedurally, the data was first downloaded into a CSV file. A self-generated Jupyter filewas created to clean the data and create the tidy format [21] XLSX files needed by Tableau forcreating the infographics [11].

An analysis of student reflections from exit interviews of graduatingstudents from 2018 and 2019 cohorts and journal entry data collected from students from therecent 2023 cohort is presented in this work. The themes emerging from this analysis show thatboth graduating students and current students seek to strengthen the RAMP community beyondthe summer program. Their recommendations point to the need for continuing support in bothpersonal achievement and for advocating the needs of their peers. With over a hundred RAMPparticipants now established across the engineering majors and the workforce, theserecommendations will be integrated in the participatory action research framework that anchorsthe design of RAMP.

impacted women students’ SoB and ASC.1. Introduction and BackgroundGender imbalance in computing programs is a persisting issue not only at Farmingdale StateCollege (FSC), but also at the national and international level. The authors have taken a multi-faceted approach to balance the gender gap by running multiple support programs at FSC moreconsistently since fall 2019 [1]. This paper focuses on the intervention of providing womenstudents with an opportunity to attend an overnight, women in computing conference. Preliminaryresults from the first in-person overnight mixed-gender field trip in spring 2022 were positive [2].This paper evaluates the impact of the second in-person overnight trip, that was limited to womenonly in spring 2023.Enrollment

Figure 1. Computing degrees enrollment during the past decade since fall 2010In their earlier work, authors analyzed the issue at FSC during the past decade and the efforts toaddress the issue. These efforts were inconsistent and temporary in nature due to various on-campus factors (such as limited funding, lack of faculty time, difficulty of hiring new faculty)and external factors (such as COVID19 pandemic, campuswide and statewide budget freezes)[15-16]. Subsequently, in 2019, the authors developed a vision to balance enrollment
