Even if the previous director desires to impart all that they know, it is possible that thereis knowledge or meta-knowledge that they, themselves, are unaware they possess.Another challenge is the lack of widespread understanding of the state of the art in diversity,equity, inclusion, and belonging from a practitioner standpoint. The community exists in a stateof functional dichotomy between those designated as researchers and practitioners. In addition,there are many members of the academic community who are not aware of either the currentstate of practice OR

The failure toacknowledge and support individuals experiencing grief not only undermines their personal well-being but also jeopardizes their professional contributions and overall organizational health.In this study, the researchers examined the literature concerning grief and bereavement, with aspecific focus on the profound ramifications for women in academic settings. Moreover, theycritically investigated existing organizational policies and grief and bereavement supportinitiatives within academic institutions. Drawing insights from their analysis, recommendationsand a

that the skills in both fields overlap. A good artist and a goodengineer need to have confidence in their abilities in creative problem solving. Structuring thecamp with a theme of art allows students more opportunities to feel like they belong in the field. The sculpture area at WSU provided hands-on practices in three-dimensional art includingsculpture and jewelry/small metals as part of our contribution to the camp. Most often theworkshops applied the welding skills students learned from the engineering lessons to createexperimental sculptural forms in metal with an emphasis on being playful, creative and havingfun.
