coordinated approach to promote inclusion and equityIn 2011, a university-wide Inclusion Implementation Plan (IIP) was completed which identifiedfour key areas: Access and Equity, Campus Climate, Diversity in Curriculum/Co-Curriculum,and Organizational Learning. GVSU has been a leader in campus climate assessment andcompleted its fifth assessment in 2015. Data from this was used to drive strategic decisions in thenext phase. Moving forward, GVSU’s commitment includes sustaining institutional efforts toensure that equity is embedded across the campus, and ingrained in all functions, decisionmaking, and planning [23]. The next phase focuses on the following three broad areas: Equityand structural diversity, Inclusion and campus climate, and Learning

Some of the challenges in the program were in sustaining engagement by students due totheir location over two campuses and their responsibilities and workloads of their graduatestudies. Thus, finding a common time was not possible so creating access through varyingdays/times and modalities was necessary. In addition, there were also challenges due to thepandemic affecting in-person event planning and the strain many students felt at that time. Inaddition, more participants are needed to measure self-advocacy knowledge and skills ofgraduate students more broadly before they engage in this type of professional development. If

This model can be implemented through various types of mentoring mechanisms.

The survey data initiallyrepresented directed relationships between organizations, indicating the strength of connection ineach category (contact, information sharing, and co-planning). To prepare the data for SNA, asymmetrization process was employed using the average or mean method. We employed thisprocedure to treat relationships as bidirectional, assuming mutual organizational interactions.While no approach to dealing with missing data in SNA is perfect, alternative methods, such asdeletion of missing data or imputation, risk the loss of valuable information.
