The I’m First – UT Tyler program is a program that services the needs of first-generation college students on main campus as well as satellite campuses and those undertaking online coursework. This program understands that each first-generation college student experience is different from the next (and many of those experiences are based in intersectional identities), so our program is centered on information sharing, advocacy, and connections to UT Tyler students, faculty, and resources. We strive to provide a sense of belonging within our campus community, which is key to not only retention and completion but the success of each student’s journey with us. As such, one of our primary methods is advocacy on campus through open and accessible communication channels – we are the touchpoint for all first-gen student questions about anything UT Tyler or college related and direct them or take them to the appropriate office to aid them.

Every month we send out a checklist newsletter to all first-generation college students (including international students and non-degree seeking students) that highlights upcoming university deadlines, breaks, campus community events (like blood drives, game and movie nights, holiday celebrations, etc), and links to all resources like tutoring and supplemental instruction. In addition to the checklist, we have created a regularly-updated glossary of all university terms (with links to the appropriate contacts and webpages) that is posted on our website and circulated accordingly.

We also host our own events, such as scholarship application workshops in which students may come to learn how to find the best scholarships for their situations and demographics, how to write the best essay, and how to submit them. This is an all-day, 2-day service offered in-person, but online and distance students are free to make unlimited one-on-one appointments for the same purpose as well as for resume review. We also host come-and-go social events. Further, we honor these students by providing first-generation stoles at every graduation and present them at a free banquet for them and their families. They are also available for pickup at graduation check-in. We host tables at preview days and homeschool days with swag and information, and our newly formed student organization will have a presence at orientation as well as host their own peer-centered events.

Lastly, beginning in the 2022 fall semester, the first-generation living-learning community will open its first wing in an on-campus housing unit. It will have its own first-generation RA as well as weekly meetings with our office’s staff that serve to bring the university’s resources to the students directly, such as advising, tutoring, safe zone training, study halls, library liaison tutorials, and more. Further, these students will also participate in servant-leadership opportunities and get to experience the Tyler community on field trips.

In this era of increasing polarization, UNT’s mission of preparing students for the challenges they will meet in a world that is evolving rapidly has never been more important. A critical part of this preparation is helping students learn to consider and engage with different perspectives, and to be comfortable and confident expressing their own. Unfortunately, some students do not always feel included, nor that their experiences are valued. Indeed, some students often express doubt that they belong in the academic programs in which they are interested or even that they belong at a university at all. For the sake of all our students, it is incumbent on all of us that we carefully examine our policies and practices to ensure that they equitably support, affirm, and validate all students. During the 2021-22 academic year we asked faculty to gather input from students regarding how inclusive they feel the program curriculum is, asking questions such as how safe they feel in sharing their perspectives and how welcome they feel in the program. We then provided some guiding questions that individual faculty should consider and, together with the input gathered from students, asked them to reflect on their courses and teaching practices. Finally, we asked faculty in each program to consider together ways the overall program might be adjusted to encourage respectful and welcoming dialog, and then submit a narrative to their college’s dean detailing what steps they have taken so far and what further steps they have planned to support this mission.

Increasing STEM College and Career Access for Underserved Populations Statewide

The aims of this project are to implement a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system that will provide the School of Health Professions (SHP) at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center with the capacity to reach underserved populations statewide. Currently, the school relies on a “boots on the ground” approach with one recruiter and limited technology. Advising for underserved students is currently too lightly resourced on both the sides of the enrollment funnel, which is an obstacle that the technical solution of a CRM can help to overcome. Streamlining efficient communications and recruiting processes will enhance the school’s ability to reach underserved populations and help to prepare these students for entry into high-demand and high-paying jobs in the health care industry. The CRM implementation will be heavily focused on establishing communications and recruitment strategies that enable the student success division of the SHP to target recruiting to Early College High School (ECHS) campuses in Houston and Greater Houston and establishing seamless articulations with community colleges across Houston and Greater Houston to include Harris, Fort Bend, Brazoria counties.

Victoria College (VC) wants to improve equitable access to academic, financial, and support services for VC students. To accomplish this, VC will use the majority of requested funds to procure a new comprehensive student engagement system or customer relationship management software, often abbreviated to CRM. The remainder of the request will supplement our digital outreach efforts to link more underserved students into the new system.

The target group for improved engagement is our underserved student populations. Empowering underserved students to succeed will require (a) sharing relevant information about VCs services with targeted groups who need it most and (b) understanding how students use services so we can continually increase awareness and support for groups who need it most.

All full-time, first-time-in-college (FTIC) students are enrolled in Learning Frameworks during their first semester at Texarkana College. In the course, students study research and theory in the psychology of learning, cognition, and motivation; factors that impact learning; and application of learning strategies. Theoretical models of strategic learning, cognition, and motivation serve as the conceptual basis for the introduction of college-level student academic strategies. Students use assessment instruments (e.g., learning inventories) to help them identify their own strengths and weaknesses as strategic learners. Students are ultimately expected to integrate and apply the learning skills discussed across their own academic programs and become effective and efficient learners. Students developing these skills should be able to continually draw from the theoretical models they have learned.

Both institutions conducted a region-wide tour of high schools (18 dates) from March 30 – to May 3, 2022. EPCC hosted the final date at their Administrative Services Center where students from ISDs not able to make previous events, charter schools, private schools, parochial schools, home-schooled students, as well as students who were unable to attend during an event at their school were invited. The intention of the OCB event is to take our services directly to the graduating seniors and to allow them to leave the event enrolled for the fall 2022 semester. All students attending the event would meet with Counselors and Advisors, Admissions and Registration, Financial Aid, and New Student Orientation. OCB is supported by an institutional budget.
