from the constituents being able to elect the first Black president of theUnited States (Tavernise et al., 2019). Though there is reminisce of “the old south” withconfederate flags and pro-Trump apparel, there has been a call to focus on racial and socialissues from the macro level. After the public attention of Governor Northam’s Blackface picturefrom his college years, he was challenged to make public amends and undertake anuncomfortable learning experience where he addressed his wrongful actions, learned more aboutanti-racism by confronting white-male privilege and worked with oppressed communities tomeet their needs (Cole, 2019). As a result of this call to action in supporting the needs of Blackand other underserved communities, there has
traditionally marginalized students bring into the field and to train graduate students and faculty members with the tools to promote effec- tive and inclusive learning environments and mentorship practices. Homero aspires to change discourses around broadening participation in engineering and promoting action to change. Homero has been rec- ognized as a Diggs Teaching Scholar, a Graduate Academy for Teaching Excellence Fellow, a Global Perspectives Fellow, a Diversity Scholar, a Fulbright Scholar, a recipient of the NSF CAREER award, and was inducted into the Bouchet Honor Society. Homero serves as the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Chair for the Commission on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (CDEI), the
founding member and former treasurer of Research Triangle Park Evaluators, an Ameri- can Evaluation Association affiliate organization and is a member of the American Educational Research Association and American Evaluation Association, in addition to ASEE. Dr. Brawner is the principal formative evaluator for the AGEP-NC project. She has also served as an Extension Services Consultant for the National Center for Women in Information Technology (NCWIT) and, in that role, advised com- puter science and engineering departments on diversifying their undergraduate student population. She remains an active researcher, including studying academic policies, gender and ethnicity issues, transfers, and matriculation models with
of faculty impacted by COVID-19,including adjustment of workloads, teaching schedules, and PTE timelines and criteria. In eachof these cases, Advocates have served and continue to serve as a voice at the table supportinggender equity.3. The Case of Marquette University (MU)Marquette University (MU) was awarded an Adaptation ADVANCE grant in 2019. As part of itsprogramming, we decided to adapt and implement A&A activities. The Advocates group atMarquette was thus formed in Fall 2019 [11]. While the specific focus of the ADVANCEProgram at MU is on (i) equitable and inclusive faculty recruiting and (ii) improving departmentclimate, the Advocates’ primary goal is to develop best-practices that involve men faculty foraddressing gender equity

approach towards broaderparticipation. The engineering education community needs to recognize the often-neglectedstakeholder group of school counselors and the pivotal role counselors play in students’ careerpathways.Introduction There are several Interventions aimed at counselors in supporting STEM broaderparticipation (Falco & Summers, 2019; reference redacted; Shillingford et al. 2017). Such effortsare complemented by studies that document the need to broaden participation and identify arole for or place an emphasis on school counselor interactions with students in shaping theirfuture decisions within STEM, particularly a desire to persist within STEM (Aschbacher et al.2010; Grossman & Porsche, 2014).
