: Demographics of the 2017-2018 Academic Year cohort by (a) major,(b) classification, (c) gender and (d) ethnicity.The 2018-2019 Chevron Leadership Academy consists of 37 students from ISDSand all engineering majors (except biological) and all classifications (Figure 3).Of those, 21 students were retained from the previous year. This year,Construction Management was added to the distribution of majors. We were alsoable to increase the diversity of the program by adding more African American,Asian and Hispanic participants to the cohort. Between Fall 2018 and Spring2019, three students failed to meet the GPA requirements of the program andwere separated from the program. 2018-2019 by Major 2018 - 2019 by

One survey was done immediatelyfollowing the “pitch” competition and the other was given as an end of the class exit survey. Theexit interview results are more qualitative, therefore the results present in Table 1 are taken afterthe competition. Three areas of performance using a scale of 1-5 (1=none at all to 5=extreme)were statistically compared to previous year’s results. None of the questions presented showed astatistically significant difference over the years. The questions asked were a. “Rate your overall satisfaction with the leadership development experience” b
