In-personinteractions on campus offer students the chance to build community. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic eliminated many opportunities for in-person events and proved a significant barrierto finding community on campus. Regarding her experience, Khadijah remarked: So, before COVID, which was just my freshman year, I would say everything was very inclusive and fun, maybe because I was on campus more. So, I just felt like there was a lot more people who could potentially help me. In my mind I was like, okay, I’m just a

ES deal withpresumptions that physical disability is associated with disability of the mind or visual andhearing impairments are linked to cognitive limitations.

students [7][46]. Additionally, underrepresented students in STEMreference the importance of sharing identities with their peers, faculty, and mentors [16][28][34].These findings suggest a need to move towards more equity-minded hiring practices and increasethe diversity of faculty within engineering programs. Analyzing policies that guide how studentsare supported, as well as policies that create barriers for LIS, such as STEM comprehensive fees,may lead to an increase in persistence in STEM majors for LIS. Previous research showsstudents’ basic needs, such as food and housing, must be met before they are able to tend to otherparts of their lives, including becoming more engaged [7]. By removing barriers to students’basic needs, low-income
