The semester concludes with DREAM Day, when all participating menteesvisit Rice University for a day to test their designs, tour campus engineering facilities, and askquestions of a student panel about the college experience. Mentors do not receive payment orcourse credit for their time, nor do they fulfill any university requirement by participating. This study focuses specifically on the motivations of the student organizers of DREAM,known as Head Mentors. In addition to leading the mentoring sessions, Head Mentors alsoattend weekly planning meetings, recruit and assign mentors to specific school mentorshipsessions, manage the logistics of transportation and school communication, and plan

Therefore, graduation rates for engineering majors arebased on only those that make it through these Gateway courses. At The Citadel, students mustdeclare a major before they arrive to campus for their first semester. The Registrar’s Office thenbuilds the appropriate course schedule around their major choice.
