Education Code, § 54.0065 “The Tuition Rebate Program” offers students who haveenrolled for the first time in an institution of higher education in the Fall 1997 semester or later a$1,000 tuition rebate if they have attempted no more than three hours in excess of the minimumnumber of SCH required for their degrees3. For example, if a degree requires a minimum of 120SCH, students must graduate with no more than 123 attempted hours in order to qualify for a rebate.In some schools, there is an additional requirement for those students who enrolled in college for thefirst time in the Fall 2005 semester or later. For these students, a four-year degree must becompleted within four calendar years. For some degree programs such as engineering that

The data analyzed here aredrawn from a relatively small number of participants; however, these participants wereintentionally targeted in order to represent the experiences of a wide range of individuals androles within the broader community. Therefore, we anticipate that the themes that have emergedfrom this sample likely apply to others doing this type of work, and may spark conversationsabout additional, diverse experiences and perspectives.

AN UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH METHODS COURSE FOR STUDENTS ENROLLED IN SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAMS AbstractAn interdisciplinary team at the University of Arkansas is developing an undergraduate coursethat will be devoted to teaching methods and techniques for conducting research in the field ofsustainability. This domain is complex due to its interdisciplinary nature within engineering andbetween engineering and other STEM and/or non-STEM disciplines. Furthermore, researchmethods span from strictly quantitative to more qualitative extremes adding to the complexity.Sustainability curricula are developing a focus on applied research and solution oriented projects.Students need, however, to comprehend the systems perspective of a problem
