Commitment – Culture Begins Here!
Victims …- Blame others- Complain- Make excuses- Repeat ineffective behavior- “Have to” do things- Pretend their problems belong
to others- “Try”- Give up
FAILUREVictims seldom achieve goals
Creators … Accept responsibility Take actions Seek solutions Do something new “Choose to” do things Own their problems Commit & follow through Take control of their choices & their
lives!
SUCCESSCreators often achieve goals

Future Direction
Expanding Underrepresented Minority Participation: America's Science and Technology Talent at the Crossroads (2010 Report)
Identifies 5 proven, intensive strategies for student success in STEM
MESA/SPSD implements 3 of 5 strategies
SPSD II proposes to build on MESA/SPSD best practices and implement remaining 2 strategies (Summer Bridge & Mentoring) in the context of a STEM pipeline (high school-CC-4 year university)
