Developing, implementing and testing the hypothesis that college experience can be viewed as an organic system that affects student persistence and attrition. The hypothesis is based on a longitudinal model of individual departure that can be analyzed in terms of a student's pre-entry attributes, intentions, goals, and commitments, institutional experiences, and integration to academics and campus social life. Established in 1995, The Model Institutions for Excellence (MIE) is an initiative sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to increase the number of historically underrepresented minorities successfully completing Masters and Ph.D. programs in Science, Engineering and Mathematics (SEM). The following six higher education institutions were chosen based on their original proposal and the demographics of their respective student populations: * Bowie State University (NASA) * Xavier University (NSF) * Oglala Lakota College (NSF) * Spelman College (NASA) * Universidad Metropolitana (NSF) * The University of Texas at El Paso (NSF). Keywords: Research in engineering education, STEM education, scholarhip of teaching, pedagogy, learning research; diversity, broadening participation.   less
