5. Other feedback:
Text Response
I know it is a long night but adding just 5 minutes to each carousel would be helpful
Great Seminar
liked large group activity
The diversity counsel was rushed and none of the information was new
3 hours on a Friday night is a bit intense to be the only provided time with no say
It may be better to have a boring yet more informative large session rather than fun small ones
where we can't discuss on a deeper level
Thanks! I loved the 'Rise-Up' activity
It felt rushed but I think that was due to the late start
Most activities ended abruptly and couldn't be finished.
Enjoyed the Rise Up activity!
Last diversity session was cut short
Thank you for making this interesting!
Great opportunity to get to know others within the graduate program Loved the Rise Up
activity, very eye-opening
Rise up activity was eye opener despite level of being uncomfortable include question about
success/failure (ie "I have questioned whether I will succeed in my career")
I enjoyed the Race/ Ethnicity carousel and also the Rise-Up activity
Excellent workshops, very ensightful candidates/ speakers were well chosen!
Opened my eyes to alot
All carousel's were great to open eyes and realize the various world around us
I would of liked it to feel less rushed! But it was organized
Some people were not familiar with current politically correct terminology. I think each speaker
could have easily used more time
Some activities were really exposing but really made you think Enjoyed how some activities got
you up and moving
Excellent seminar. Maybe give a little more time to get food and get to our rooms?
Great diversity speakers
Excellent program. In honesty, I was not happy about having to participate in this evenings
GPS. I was extremely happy I did. It helped me grow professionaly
Summer session available in the future?

What did you like best about the PBLE?
Text Entry
PBLE was an excellent excuse to foster communication amoung diverse educational programs. I enjoyed
problem solving the two scenarios.
Meeting with different peers from different programs
Building a project and presenting it
Small teams (1&2) from different areas
All of it. I like how we presented to only the other group, not everyone. Dr. Hummel was awesome and helpful!
Collaborating with collegues
I like collaborating with people from each educational avenue. Open ended brainstorming is always helpful.
Interacting with other grad students outside of my program
Working with new people
It was a great experience to handle real life issues and create a solution to it.
7.
Was there anything you did not like about the PBLE?
Text Entry
No.
The scenario didn't relate to the elementary level
No. (Well the pizza didn't have much cheese)
Friday night
It was lovely!
No
No
It was a little too long.
Guidelines were not specific enough maybe state that there needs to be an action plan from both collegiate side
and HS settings be put with faculty comfortable witj
I enjoyed the program, it was realistic and effective

Open Ended Questions:
7. What did you like best?
Text Entry
Interacting with individuals from different programs
The diversity carousel
I liked the opportunity to meet and interact with people face to face. The first GPS on diversity was great!
The food
First GPS- learned more
Session 2
Dr. Hummel
Session 2- each scenario was able to be in the past and best thing to act out &quot;as if&quot;
Organized and helped graduate preparation
Interacting with individuals from different programs
8.
What changes would you suggest to improve the GPS experience for the future
semesters?
Please be as specific as possible.
Text Entry
Try and not make it a Friday night.
I enjoyed working with people from different programs, but it made it challenging doing a PBLE on something out
of our own &quot;comfort zone&quot;
It was great. I would suggest more specific details in completing PBLE notes to bring to 2nd GPS
All on one day maybe in place of a class (Monday- Thursday)
More different department interaction
More equitable division of program in each group
Offer it during current classes students are taking. Offer it online or on a night other than Friday. People working
2nd jobs are overwhelmed by end of week
Turn this into a webinar
change day- not on Fridays keep programs together
Pick more flexible time scales (maybe 2 session 2's and 2 session 1's)
