Given the importance of technology for U.S. innovation and economic advancement, there is a national imperative to grow and diversify the computing talent pool. Minority Serving Institutions (MSI) play a large role in cultivating inclusive learning environments for students from underrepresented groups through scholarship, service, and leadership. In this CUE Pathways project, a team of eight California community colleges will collaborate with the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) to examine and enhance the servingness aspect of MSIs. The team will study how to move from enrolling racially diverse students in computing to serving them in ways that more effectively increase persistence, graduation, and career placement outcomes. The project’s research activities will focus specifically on the effects of transfer pathways across the two- and four-year institutions and assess the adoption of servingness activities and practices along the transfer continuum on students’ graduation and career success.This project is a collaboration created between computing programs at the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC) and eight partnering California community colleges (Cañada College, City College of San Francisco, City College of San Mateo, De Anza College, Foothill College, Hartnell College, Mission College, and San Jose City College). The project has three primary aims: 1) adapt, refine, and implement a servingness framework to identify and remove institutional barriers for Transfer students in Computing, 2) improve servingness in Computing at UCSC by identifying strategies for adoption that support equitable persistence and graduation for Transfer students, and 3) assess the effectiveness of UCSC's adoption of a servingness framework, policies, and practices in advancing equity in graduation, graduate school, and career placement rates for transfer students in computing. The proposed servingness framework, as described by Lozano, Franco, and Subbian (2018), along with Garcia, Núñez, and Sansone (2019), will substantially contribute to a growing body of evidence showing how policy, instruction, student support systems, and other culturally relevant praxis can increase student success in computing. Project activities will yield model action plans, a theory of action, and recommended appropriate, replicable, and scalable interventions for institutions facing similar computing persistence and success challenges.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

鉴于技术对美国创新和经济进步的重要性，国家迫切需要扩大计算人才库并使其多样化，少数族裔服务机构 (MSI) 在通过奖学金和服务为弱势群体的学生营造包容性学习环境方面发挥着重要作用。在这个 CUE 途径项目中，由八所加州社区学院组成的团队将与加州大学圣克鲁斯分校 (UCSC) 合作，研究和增强 MSI 的服务性方面。该项目的研究活动将特别关注两年制和四年制院校转学途径的影响，并评估其采用情况。该项目是加州大学圣克鲁斯分校 (UCSC) 的计算项目与八所合作的加州社区学院（加拿大学院、圣克鲁斯城市学院）之间的合作项目。旧金山城市学院弗朗西斯科该项目有三个主要目标：1）调整、完善和实施服务框架，以识别和消除转学生的制度障碍。计算，2) 通过确定支持转学生公平坚持和毕业的采用策略来提高 UCSC 计算领域的服务性，以及 3) 评估 UCSC 在促进毕业、研究生公平方面采用服务框架、政策和实践的有效性学校， Lozano、Franco 和 Subbian（2018 年）以及 Garcia、Núñez 和 Sansone（2019 年）所描述的拟议服务框架将极大地促进越来越多的证据显示政策、教学、学生支持系统和其他与文化相关的实践如何提高学生在计算方面的成功 项目活动将产生模型行动计划、行动理论，并为面临类似问题的机构推荐适当的、可复制的和可扩展的干预措施。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
