In2001, the US organization of Engineers without Borders (EWB) founded by Bernard Amadei ofthe University of Colorado and EWB-Canada initiated a spate of student engineering work byU.S. students in needy communities all across the globe [6].In the first Peace Engineering symposium at Bucknell University (2003), the late Aarne Vesilindbrought engineering educators together for a day-long event to ask: “Is the accumulation oftechnical skills enough for engineers to be effective in practicing Peace

. Shirley Ann Jackson [4] noted that “[s]ince that time, there has beencontinuing concern that engineering education does not sufficiently incorporate liberal studies…As engineering and the technological revolution continue to transform our world, we must assurethat those who steer these changes understand the totality of the human condition, and that bringsus back to the liberal arts.” The chorus of calls for change has included soul-searching reportssuch as that by Grinter (1955) [5], which was soon overwhelmed by the urgency of Sputnik andthe Space Race insisting on the primacy of purely technical competence, and Olmsted [6].Olmsted’s 1968 ASEE Report Liberal Learning for the Engineer praised a few exemplarystudent-driven, socially
. This would reduce institutionalbias, especially if the grading is done through a ‘double-blind’ process. Additionally, responsesfrom all participating institutions can be reviewed by a single (or small group of) ‘knowledgeexpert(s)’ who are not implementing the instrument at their own institution. This latter strategyplaces a higher level of consistency in grading and providing increased reliability in theinterpretation of results, though they may come from variable sources.In undergraduate geotechnical engineering courses, future research may be needed on bias andprecision in instructor grading on high-stakes assessments such as examinations. Ultimately, thegoal is to work towards reducing bias and increasing precision in instructor grading

Employability begins when the category of theposition and the skillset(s) needed to fulfill the job requirements are established. As a position’stechnical competence and experience requirement increase, there is less flexibility for hiringmanagers to extend consideration to applicants who do not satisfy all stated criteria, even thoughthey may have the potential to do great in the targeted position.

Then, the programs that I have. Back in high school, there's no question like if I'm going to college or not. I'm definitely going to college. So, U2's like my top two schools.
