 is involved in a large effort funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to
support students and faculty in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields.
This effort, the NIH Diversity Consortium, is seeking to understand what programs and strategies
can benefit students interested in STEM careers.

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) will be collecting information about these
programs. For some analyses, it will be important to compare students and faculty in STEM majors
at  to those at other institutions as well as students and fauclty interested in
other fields.

Your mentor provided your name as part of a survey about mentoring. Your mentor will not
have access to any of the information your provide. All of the information you provide will be
protected and secured to the extent permitted by law. We ask for your name and address so
that the researchers at UCLA can contact you at some later date for follow-up study.
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 10 minutes per
response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering
and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. An
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection
of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments
regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including
suggestions for reducing this burden, to: NIH, Project Clearance Branch, 6705 Rockledge Drive,
MSC 7974, Bethesda, MD 20892-7974, ATTN: PRA (0925-xxxx*). Do not return the completed form
