This within-group differentiation appears to be grounded in fairly routine experiencesas a member of an under-represented group in a STEM field. Ironically, despite the clear disempoweringimpact that these experiences can have, there is also some evidence that they may promote thedevelopment of alternative value structures and feelings of purpose related to STEM fields for membersof underrepresented groups. 15ReferencesAlexander, C.

Maturity Model (CMM) intosoftware engineering was developed by the Software Engineering Institute of CarnegieMellon University in 1987. The integrated version (CMMI) evolved from this early work.ABET’s Criteria 2000 was inexorably linked to the quality assurance fervor of the 1990’s[2-7]. However, the work involved in preparing for accreditation is enormous, and facultymembers do not always find the direct benefit of such work. As a result, some nontechnicalfaculty members have even resorted to excoriating the entire outcomes-based approach ofthe accreditation process publicly [8].The classroom instructors of many undergraduate courses are burdened with severalchallenges such as large class sizes, dwindling instructional support and the need to

Code-level hardening is also employed tomake it difficult for attackers from easily discovering vulnerabilities in the code, as well as to protectthe program owner’s intellectual property [15].Hardening can also refer to practices that make the original source code of an application moredifficult to understand. This is generally defined as code obfuscation. The practice of codeobfuscation in modern software engineering dates back to the 1980’s, with small competitions heldto transform simple C code into confusing, abstract puzzles difficult for humans to parse andunderstand [16].Since the 1980’s, literature on code-level obfuscation has been consistent but generally sparse.
