groups reported that theirinvolvement in a pre-college summer program for Black STEM students helped them achieveacademic, social, and professional expectations [17]. Specifically, entering college having anetwork of peers, faculty and administrators gave students access to resources they might nothave otherwise utilized, in addition to a sense of family. Likewise, there are numerous examplesof successful mentoring programs in higher education like the Meyerhoff Scholars Program [18],the Merit Program for Emerging Scholars at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign[19], the Adventor Program [20] and others.Generally, there are three primary components to a mentoring program: (a) program values, (b)access to faculty and peers, and (c

In the Week 4reflections, these five female students used words such as “self conscious,” “disadvantage,” and“insecure” when reflecting on being a woman in engineering. One student wrote that “manypeople don’t take me seriously when I tell them I am an engineering major [b]ecause they think Ilook more like a liberal arts student.” Another student wrote that her identity as a Hispanic, low-income, and female caused “conflict in my personal life because close family and family friendsdon’t

For each program, the relative academic performance of the engineeringstudents who participated in the LC program is compared to those engineering students who did not participate.

Among the 26scholarship recipients, one was a transfer student and nine were females. To be considered forthe scholarship, students were required to have a minimum grade point average (GPA) of 2.8 orhigher (on a 4.0 scale) and an estimated financial need of $5,000 or more.

Thus, the team agreed that the core values and objectives of the programcould still be met in a one year-program via semi-independent quarters. There were severalbenefits to running the program in the aforementioned format: (a) the new scheme does not havean impact on scheduling or grade assignment; (b) students have the option to leave the program Page 26.1385.9at the end of each quarter and, at the same time, new students can join it at any quarter as long aspre-requisites are met
