on graduatestudents who hold marginalized identities -- highlight the ongoing need to research the mentalhealth of STEM graduate students and how mental health influences various aspects of their livesand academic trajectories, aligning with the conclusion in the review conducted by Bork andMondisa focused on graduate student mental health in engineering (2021).Our findings reveal a significant shift in the focus on mental health publications during and afterthe COVID-19 pandemic. The observed shift in focus towards mental health publications duringand after the COVID-19 pandemic is indicative of an increased acknowledgment of the mentalhealth challenges that arose and the necessity for supportive measures and interventions toeffectively

]), I present an argument in this paper that ChatGPT is animportant tool for creating equitable access, especially for international students or students withtraditionally marginalized identities in engineering education. I present this from thepositionalities of student educators in engineering courses with reading and writing componentsand as international students in the US having relied on machine translation in their own studentexperiences. Using an approach similar to Coppola and Turns [11], I draw upon findingsgathered from interviewing other instructors of engineering courses within my department, aswell as a reflection of my own experiences as an instructor in engineering courses. I presentmicrocultures of student experiences of using
