Campers could earn between 1 and 3 points.Question 5: a) What do you think the word sustainability means? b) What does it mean to live sustainably? Both parts of this question were awarded between 1 and 3 points. Scores were compounded for a maximum of 6 points on this question.Question 6: Fill in the bubble of the best answer. a) When buying peaches, which option is more sustainable? b) It is most sustainable to put my leftovers: c) About how long does it take a plastic water bottle to break down in a landfill? There were two options provide
students and (b) identify factors related to effectiveness of interventions to promotetransfer, retention and graduation of Hispanic STEM undergraduates. Given the urgency toimprove transfer of Hispanic students to four-year engineering programs, the likelihood of large-scale programs to improve the success of minority students in STEM, and the lack ofcomprehensive syntheses, the need for such syntheses is imminent and important. Therefore, wepropose to develop a comprehensive framework for promoting success of Hispanic STEM transferstudents by applying established systematic review methods [4] to existing primary studies inseveral areas. Results of the synthesis will be extensively shared with multiple stakeholders in thesuccess of Hispanic STEM

Blood pressure monitors are used to estimate arterial cuffpressure in the arms of a patient to deduce the systolic and diastolic pressure tomeasure the heart work load. By using existing monitoring techniques coupledwith the use of individual patient health data informatics, personalized andcustom-tailored health recommendations can be made to patients to treat theirhypertension in their daily lives.

response to feedback from “Dr. Jacobson” (see second anecdote below), we spent almost anentire meeting debating over whether or not to describe the upper-level administrator’s watch as:a) “flashy”, which was Michael’s original, immediate observation and visceral reaction, b) “whatlooks like an expensive watch”, or c) to simply leave this part of the story out altogether. Thosein favor of option “a” felt that it was important to highlight the difference between Michael’sprior life experiences and the level of privilege that such watches represent to him. At the sametime, we all agreed that the use of the word “flashy” served to set the anecdotes as immediatereactions captured in Michael’s natural voice apart from the other more formally written

Whileacademic success is important to measure the success of the ASPIRE program, the PI’s werehoping to have students with lower than a B average as part of the awardee’s in the program. Ourcohorts have shown that the high achieving students are taking advantage of the ASPIREprogram. PI’s recognize more work is needed in advertising to a wide range of GPA students toachieve some long-term goals.AcknowledgementThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.1154345.
