  1. Mean values were calculated for pre and post student responses for each internship cohort; IP = in-person experience; R = remote experience. Values are formatted as pre, post (percent change). Two-sample unequal variance t test was performed on pre and post values to evaluate significance between each cohort. Significant difference was calculated for pre values between 2019 & 2021 cohorts (#p = 0.02 for Identity; 0.01 for 21st CLS); and for post values between 2019 & 2021 cohorts (*p = 0.02 for 21st CLS), and between 2020 & 2021 cohorts (^p = 0.03 for 21st CLS).
