Then the experiential learningcoming from open discussions, making deep, meaningful connections, and dispute managementin classes and dorms all significantly contribute to shaping them as responsible future citizens.Students learn not only from the faculty but from their peers. They learn about themselves, theiridentities, their interest, their character, school pride, conflict resolution, emotional intelligence,and a whole host of things. However, even with all its benefits, this residential experience is notaccessible to all groups of students due to its high price tag

Despite widely cited benefits related to development ofprofessionally relevant skills and retention, the National Academies report notes that there remainsa need for more systematic research into the outcomes of undergraduate research experiences inorder to improve undergraduate training [7]. The report also highlights that much of the researchfindings are associated with 10-week summer programs (e.g. REU programs) and more researchon in-semester research experiences is needed [7].Engineering student clubs represent another common co-curricular mechanism in

The hypothesis is thatleading outreach will cause middle school girls to self-identify in STEM while acting as rolemodels for the younger students. Although the number of women in STEM fields has beensteadily growing, this has not been true in computer science. Over the past 20 years, thepercentage of women earning computer science degrees has decreased from 28% to 18%.i This isa problem not only because these women are missing out on a lucrative career
