The purpose of this study is to understand how Black undergraduate students feel their involvement in extracurricular activities (ECAs) affects their academic success, personal growth, and sense of identity. It also looks at how cultural relevance plays a role in these outcomes. By gathering information through surveys and focus groups, the study aims to uncover connections between ECA participation, cultural influences, and student experiences. The findings will add to research on the experiences of Black students at predominantly white institutions (PWIs), focusing on both the positive impacts and challenges of participating in ECAs at these institutions.

This trial seeks to enroll patients diagnosed with HER2-negative (HER2- low or HER2-0)- MBC who are starting treatment with T-DXd. The purpose is to determine if the test used for HER2+ MBC also works for HER2-low MBC. By participating in this trial, you are contributing to information that may improve the care of future patients with HER2-negative (HER2- low or HER2-0)- MBC. This trial does not require additional biopsies. Only tissue left over from a standard-of-care procedure will be used. The study team will access your medical record to review routine imaging test results as well as track your response to your treatment. Your breast cancer care will be managed by your oncologist, and you won't need to interact with the study team for direct care. No extra visits with the study team are required, except possibly for the initial enrollment.
