How can colleges ensure that all students have the ability to learn and apply coping skills toensure academic and career success? Scholarship on communities of practice (for example, the computerscience department) detail that new members or outsiders can only become a part of the community whenthe elders of the community (i.e., faculty, advanced students) accept and indoctrinate them in the cultureof the community (Wenger, 1998). This concept can be executed through mentoring. Mentoring is therelationship between a more experienced individual and a less

By developing the partnershipwith the company’s management and the EPICS Program, we are able to work together toreplace employees as they move through their careers and maintain the academic support duringthe school year. Some corporate volunteers cannot commit to a weekly meeting and they serve as designreviewers. Twice each semester, every EPICS team conducts a design review, at the midpointand end of the semester. Corporate representatives serve as the design reviewers for the teamsand provide valuable feedback to the students. Each design reviewer is given training andstandardized forms to provide feedback and the teams are scheduled so that a reviewer

Thesurvey was conducted anonymously; thus, the survey data is only available en masse for eachschool population polled.
