Veteran and active duty students have persistence andmental toughness for academic work stemming from their goal oriented work ethic in themilitary. Some of these veterans and active duty students initially entered college after highschool, performed poorly due to the lack of mental toughness and persistence, and then enteredthe military. As students who are now traditionally older and more cognitively developed, theyare better equipped to scaffold more traditional students through complicated problems andinteractions. In addition, their world experience provides a different and critically broadexperience

Thepolicies of the Honor Code apply to all students of the institute or taking courses at the institute,faculty members, staff members, and administrators.

, knowledge of changes in student attitudes were sought as a response to a coursedeveloped for first year engineering (FYE) majors [12]. This course, Engineering and Society,contains elements that are common among FYE courses such as the study of engineeringdisciplines, ethics, and a team-based design project, yet it uniquely focuses on the connectionsamong engineering/technology and society and the development of technology within a societalcontext. This allows us to integrate ethics and the engineering design experience with thetechnology and society content, which provides a platform for analyzing current technologicalsystems and exposes students to the breadth and diversity of engineering.

Not limited to those in the humanities and socialsciences, and indicative of the import that ASEE members now place on the associated learningoutcome, the Ethics Division is now one of the largest divisions in our society. The traditionaldisciplinary divisions have also responded to this shift.

The teacher usually also tries to instill a good work ethic as thestudent learns. For the mathematics and sciences courses this often involves assigning problemsets for the student to apply and practice the tools, techniques, and concepts presented in classand in the reading assignments. At regular intervals the student is tested on her or his ability toidentify and categorize problems, select the appropriate tools to solve the problem, and apply theappropriate problem solving steps to actually solve the problem. This testing exercise isdesigned for assessment and feedback

While engineering programs require students to take courses in the arts,humanities, and social sciences, students often compartmentalize these human-centric skills as“liberal arts” skills instead of weaving them into their technical expertise. There are numerousexamples of engineering programs or courses that have incorporated arts and humanities intodesign courses to encourage students to practice integrating human-centric skills with theirtechnical knowledge.15-17 A major challenge faced by this approach is that these courses are oftenseen as design courses and the “soft skills” offered by the arts and humanities faculty are just
