This very robust initiative is our University's Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP). In an effort to ultimately impact academic success, it proposes to address issues and challenges related to the “whole student.” The plan proposes activities that directly engage students as soon as they express an interest in the university. It also proposes activities that support and empower students to matriculate beyond the first year and ultimately progress to graduation. The primary thrust of this plan includes targeted interventions during the initial months of enrollment designed to help students have a strong acclimation to the University from the onset. TSU has identified a topic through its ongoing comprehensive planning and evaluation processes, that include 14 key areas across campus ranging from Admissions, Financial Aid, Information Technology and Campus Engagement.

Austin Community College’s new, all-inclusive scholarship program supports students focused on starting a career immediately after ACC. Career Scholars receive financial and academic support while working toward a certificate or associate degree in an approved area of study. The scholarship covers the cost of tuition and fees — for a total of $5,000 disbursed over a period of up to 3 years — and ensures recipients have the guidance and support they need to reach their goals. Career Scholars builds holistic support services around the students, with rich career service resources and academic support in an effort to 1) alleviate financial barriers that often prevent underserved student populations from attaining a higher ed credential; 2) support students academically while enhancing their career skills, and 3) give students exposure to potential internships with industry partners in their area of study. The unique Career Scholars program serves two categories of students: graduating high school seniors and current ACC adult learners. Participants in the High School Career Scholars program work toward a certificate or associate degree in a field that was identified by the Texas Workforce Commission as having high demand and earning potential. These fields are: Arts, Digital Media & Communications; Business; Computer Sciences, Information Technology, Engineering; Education; Health Care; Manufacturing/Skilled Trades; Public & Social Services. The Career Scholars Program for adults is open to adult learners interested in the following career areas, which have strong hiring and salary opportunities: Accounting/Bookkeeping; Computer Sciences; Health Care; Manufacturing; and Applied Tech/Skilled Trades.

Core features/target population
In Fall 2016, A&M-SA enrolled a cohort of 171 males of color, of which only 34, or 20%, graduated within 5 years, dovetailing national trends of lower minority male enrollment and graduation in higher education. As a result, the University launched AIMM in Fall 2021, a year-long program to increase the retention, graduation, engagement, and overall success of ethnic minority males on campus.

Participants are expected to increase their knowledge and skills in: time management, academic and leadership development, personal and professional branding, mental and physical health, financial literacy, and civic responsibility. AIMM's holistic approach cultivates a sense of belonging for participants, thus increasing their chances for educational success and future quality of life.

Goals and objectives
Learning Outcomes:
1. By actively participating in A.I.M.M., students will enhance their professional skills through public speaking, resume development, and personal branding.
2. As an A.I.M.M. participant, students will foster mentoring relationships with A&M-SA faculty and staff that contribute to their personal, academic, and professional development as student leaders.
3. A.I.M.M. identifies and utilizes academic-related resources and tools to support its member's academic performance in the classroom.
4. A.I.M.M. provides opportunities for participants to connect with campus resources, students, faculty, staff, administrators, and the San Antonio community by providing a holistic approach cultivating a sense of belonging.
5. Participating in service-learning projects, A.I.M.M. participants will recognize the importance of community service and civic responsibility through personal involvement and municipal engagement with A&M-SA and the San Antonio community.
A.I.M.M. participants will participate in initiatives to improve their health holistically. This includes but is not limited to students' physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health and well-being.
7. As an A.I.M.M. participant, students will enter into a brotherhood bound by shared values, principles, attitudes, and beliefs.
8. A.I.M.M. will promote positive self-identity development by creating safe spaces for students to examine their own experiences and identities and to allow them to express it freely.

Initiative Pillars

Brotherhood
We define brotherhood as a network and/or group bounded by shared values, principles, attitudes, and beliefs. This brotherhood will challenge and empower their members positively and hold each other accountable.

Leadership
We define leadership in an individual and collective sense, as a person or group with the necessary qualities to be an example in multiple spaces. Leaders develop the ability to persevere and accept others' support and input to work cohesively towards a common goal with integrity.

College & Career Readiness
College and career readiness ensures that students are equipped with the translatable tools, skills, and abilities to succeed and excel academically. Students should be able to translate these skills and abilities into their chosen professional careers.

Health & Wellness
We define health and wellness as promoting healthy and holistic relationships amongst our students. Which includes, but it is not limited to, students' physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health and well-being.

At the heart of The Cardinal Advocacy and Resource Center is the conviction that education is a basic human right, essential to a thriving democracy. We recognize that to support our students through completion, students often need assistance outside of the classroom. Affording students the tools to reduce basic needs insecurity and learn to advocate for themselves is a priority at the CARC. Available to all students enrolled in at least 3 hours, the CARC is more than just a food and clothing pantry. Equitable access to basic needs includes assistance for, but not limited to, transportation, child-care, housing, food, technology, and emergency funding. Holistic support is also available to meet students where they area. We work to ensure students basic needs are met so they can focus on their academic success. Learning to be an advocate for themselves is another important function of the CARC. To that end, we provide students with an updated and comprehensive resource guide to allow students to easily locate and find services at the time they need it.

The Circle of Support is a partnership between Temple College and the Temple community to ensure no student drops out of college because of life barriers, including emergency expenses, child care, transportation, housing, and food. Students in need of assistance with non-academic issues can access the Circle of Support Resource Center in person, by phone, by email, or may opt to complete an online intake form. Once a request is received, a student can expect an initial response from the director within 24 hours. The reply will include referrals to community organizations that assist with the student's specific barrier, including mental health services, vaccinations, women's services, and help with utilities.
In addition to connecting students to external resources, the Circle of Support offers in-house resources. Students needing emergency aid for expenses such as car repairs, unexpected medical expenses, and basic needs can receive help in two ways. First, supported by a faculty recommendation, a student can receive a one-time award of up to $300 to help offset emergency expenses through the Student Success Fund. Second, the student can apply for a no-interest Leopard Loan.
Temple College recognizes that food insecurity is a serious concern that can interfere with academic performance and student success. Therefore, the Circle of Support Resource Center features an on-campus food pantry open to students and employees experiencing food insecurity. Aside from traditional canned and dry food products, shoppers may choose from various fresh proteins, dairy, and produce. Additionally, the pantry offers hygiene and cleaning products.
Providing the students access to resources that address life barriers such as mental health needs, housing, childcare, emergency funds, and food insecurity speaks to Temple College's focus on student success and the importance of a holistic approach to serving students.
