experience.Throughout the implementation of FDS, several valuable lessons were learned, providinginsights into areas for improvement and refinement. One key lesson was the importance ofongoing communication and engagement with participants before, during, and after thesymposium. Building and sustaining relationships with Hispanic engineering faculty membersrequired proactive outreach efforts, personalized communication channels, and responsivesupport mechanisms. Additionally, leveraging technology and digital platforms to enhancevirtual participation and engagement emerged as a valuable lesson learned during the COVID-19pandemic. Integrating virtual components into future FDS events could extend accessibility andreach, accommodating diverse schedules and

There is frequent news in the media about large technology companiesprioritizing benefits over the safety of minoritized users, the welfare of their employees, and thewell-being of the planet [35], [36], [37]. While the news does not represent the wholeengineering industry, it can influence how engineering students perceive what the industryvalues. This image of the engineering industry being built within a capitalist system [38] andbeing inattentive to social justice issues begs the question of how engineering students aremaking sense of
