Key Factors Longitudinal Bonner Student Impact and Alumni Surveys demonstrate that strongest contributors for program effectiveness in terms of retention and student growth are: • Cohort and Developmental Model • Diversity and dialogue across difference • Mentors (staff, peers, supervisors, & faculty) • Structured re fl ection and education

Causes of Impact… Study of Alumni in 2010 (20th Anniversary) with 1,066 participants (32%) found: • Both intentional and unintentional re fl ection are critical for student learning and post-graduate commitments to civic life. • Developing civic-minded orientation is associated with more frequent civic action and volunteering after graduation, as well as career choices.
- 36. Take Aways • Create the most diverse cohort and program that you can. Promote campus diversity, equity, & inclusion. • Combine co-curricular and curricular experiences into your calendar and expectations. • Build in opportunities for both formal learning and informal re fl ection, dialogue, and meaning making.
