The evaluation is based on field notes and interviews with peer mentors, students in participating departments, and Department leaders. Major-based peer mentors serve as campus/community resource bridges, a source of street knowledge on being a successful HSU student, and a conduit for major academic integration. PMs deliver support through office hours in the academic office, 1-to-1 appointments, and planned department events. This model is informed by: (1) research on cultural and social capital in higher education; (2) student success research on the unique needs for academic and career integration in the middle years; and (3) critical theories of student integration that center minoritized students in particular, and first-generation students more broadly, while supporting all students.https://digitalcommons.humboldt.edu/ideafest_posters/...

The program targeted financially eligible American Indian and first generation students from the HSU region. This paper reports the estimated final retention rates for the fourth and final year of the program and reports how the S-STEM funding has influenced educational practices in the ERE department. The lessons learned from SLS program have informed the ERE department Diversity and Retention Plan required by the new university accreditation process, whose purpose is to increase retention of diverse students in all majors. One part of the plan that was informed by the SLS project is the implementation of a peer mentoring program for first year engineering (ERE) students. The peer mentoring program was started due to the SLS project outcomes that ...
