These findings suggest that MSIs may beparticularly successful in retaining minority students because they allow a variety of strongsupport systems to work concurrently within an educational experience. A deeperunderstanding of how underrepresented students value support can help PWIs that wish toprovide a more supportive environment for Black and Hispanic students.
