Page 20.31.6Education Services, and one of their directors served as the moderator for the program. This seminar included students from several disciplines, including 15 STEM students.While the number of STEM “in-person” attendees is small, students who attended the seminardiscussed their opinions with students who did not attend through our “Professors BeyondBorders” online discussion group. The responses from the online discussions reflected thesentiments of the 15 STEM graduate students who attended this seminar in person. Figure1shows that 93% of the participants felt that the seminar gave then important information; inaddition, Figure 2 shows that 60% of the students who attended the seminar gained a morecomprehensive understanding
