Mik became part of the StARs team in Winter 2022. As a first year transfer student seeking ways to be involved on campus, they were intrigued by the program’s mission statement of encouraging a more equitable campus through assessment research. This has given them the opportunity to develop qualitative research skills. They are looking forward to continuing their work with promoting undergraduate perspectives in higher academia and graduating next Spring with their Bachelor’s in Sociology.
