69色情视频鈥檚 STEM Guide Program has received the 2022 Inspiring Programs in STEM Award from the largest and oldest diversity and inclusion publication in higher education.

The award, given by INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine, honors colleges and universities that encourage and assist students from underrepresented groups to enter the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics 鈥� collectively called STEM. DePauw鈥檚 program will be featured, along with 78 other recipients, in the September issue of the magazine.

Award winners were selected based on their work to inspire and encourage a new generation of young people to consider careers in STEM through mentoring, teaching, research and successful programs and initiatives.

聽鈥淲e鈥檙e gratified that INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine recognizes the great value the STEM Guide Program brings to students and faculty members in every STEM discipline,鈥� said Dave Berque, DePauw鈥檚 vice president for academic affairs. 鈥淚've had the chance to hear the STEM guides present about the meaning of this work to them personally, and I鈥檝e heard from students who are benefiting from聽 learning from the guides. I鈥檝e also walked through the building and seen the buzzing, high-energy room with dozens of students talking about STEM topics and getting help from these peer mentors.

鈥淭he program has been remarkably successful because of its breadth in implementation and the effectiveness of its impact on individual students 鈥� both those doing the mentoring and those who are mentored.鈥�

The STEM Guide Program began as part of a 鈥渋nclusive excellence鈥� grant DePauw received in 2018 from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, which funds medical research. The program is intended to support 鈥淧EER鈥� students, an acronym for Persons Excluded because of their Ethnicity and Race, and increase their sense of belonging in STEM.

STEM guides are students, often PEER students themselves, who have been successful in a STEM course and serve as mentors and teaching assistants in an introductory STEM course in DePauw鈥檚 eight STEM departments. Since the program began, more than 80% of STEM guides have been women, PEER students, first-generation students or international students.

STEM guides enroll in a partial-credit course to learn peer-education techniques and explore issues related to identity and inclusion in STEM. They meet weekly with faculty partners to discuss content, assignments and activities, and attend the corresponding class or laboratory at least once a week.

The guides, who are paid for their work, offer 鈥渙ffice hours鈥� each week to work with students outside of class. The program also encourages faculty members to reimagine their classes to use active and evidence-based teaching practices and integrate the STEM guide into class sessions.

Since fall 2018, the program has trained 103 guides, who have helped 49 of DePauw鈥檚 STEM faculty members improve their introductory courses for more than 3,500 students.

鈥淲e know that many STEM programs are not always recognized for their success, dedication and mentorship for underrepresented students,鈥� said Lenore Pearlstein, owner and publisher of INSIGHT Into Diversity magazine. 鈥淲e want to honor the schools and organizations that have created programs that inspire and encourage young people who may currently be in or are interested in a future career in STEM.鈥�
