in shifting student bias towards inclusion in the three interventions. The mostpromising approach is student-led, where senior students worked to change the student culturedirectly.Introduction and BackgroundImproving diversity in STEM fields is an important goal and has been widely studied. It is well-known that students and professionals in STEM careers in the USA do not reflect the generalpopulation of the country [1]. For example, white men make up 31.6% of the general populationwhile they make up 51% of scientists and engineers. Black men make up 6% of the populationand 3% of the STEM workforce. The percentage of non-white and non-Asian people in the USAis 31.3% while the percentage of this sub-population working in STEM is just 12%. In

By the 1990’s, universities across the country were experimenting with various types oflearning communities. The learning communities including residential communities can all varywidely in structure and involvement with faculty and staff. Alexander Astin5 defined learningcommunities as: Such communities can be organized along curricular lines, common career interests, avocational interests, residential living areas, and so on. These can be used to build a sense of group identity, cohesiveness, and uniqueness; to encourage continuity and the integration of diverse curricular and co-curricular

Those classes which entered in the Fall of 2023, 2024 and 2025will experience part of their academic careers under a mixture of quarters and semesters. Therewill need to be a transition program for each of these classes. With a commitment to not delayany student’s path to graduation and the implementation of well-crafted course substitutions thatalways favor the student, this can be achieved with minimum rancor. The good news is that theproblem only lasts for three years and simply needs to be endured.Conclusions

. Cultural preparation is essential for any study abroad program. It's important for students to understand the culture, customs, and expectations of the place they are visiting. This can help avoid misunderstandings and cultural insensitivity. In addition, communicating with people from different cultures and languages is a valuable skill that can benefit students in many aspects of their lives. Learning how to appreciate and understand other cultures can help avoid misunderstandings and create more meaningful relationships. 2.
