Holistic Mentoring for Underrepresented Students

This session will focus on the importance of serving students in a holistic manner to aim at closing the achievement gaps for underrepresented students. We will provide an overview of the CSU’s Community for Excellence program and the historically underrepresented student population it serves (first generation, low income, students of color, ect.). We will discuss the impact of collaboration across departments, Scholar Contact’s holistic mentoring, and retention efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. We will drive deeper into the questions of “who are we serving, who are we not, and who could we be serving?”.
