conversations about equity anddiversity in the classroom. The engineering curriculum is not neutral, and knowledge is producedwithin a power-driven social and cultural system [3, 4]. ABET student outcomes are not entirelytechnical and include that students must have an understanding of professional and ethicalresponsibility, the broad education necessary to understand engineering impacts in a global andsocietal context, and knowledge of contemporary issues. Nevertheless, discussing the societaland ethical implications of engineering and technology is often a daunting task for bothengineering students and instructors [5].At our university, as part of a National Science Foundation (NSF) Revolutionizing Engineeringand Computer Science Departments (RED

. Smith presented study after study on this most obvious national issue. One study showed hownames alone influenced whether the committee thought a candidate was qualified or not. In thatstudy, black sounding names were rated routinely lower for comparable qualifications versuscandidates with white sounding names.Dr. Smith produced university-specific numbers, reflecting below national averages across theboard. She made an adamant point to suggest “…tenure was broken… from every perspective– theoretical, practical, moral, and ethical, the tenure process and those participating in itare exercising prejudice and bias in their decision making…”At this tier 1, high research university, the issue is apparent.
