Program Abstract: Our Embedded Tutor Program began as a portion of our Inclusive Excellence Initiative at Trinity Washington University. The program started in select STEM courses and has quickly grown to include students and courses across the disciplines. We are now working with the newly formed Student Success Center at Trinity to centralize the program and make it more robust and sustainable. This session will provide an overview of the logistics of the program and required institutional support. We will discuss collaborations with existing departments on campus and work-study programs. We will also highlight successes so far, including pass rates and persistence data, as well as student, tutor, and faculty perspectives on their experiences.
