This escalating use of transportation infrastructure; coupled with financial constraints,has forced transportation agencies to shift more attention on the preservation and maintenance ofexisting infrastructure (i.e., pavements) rather than the construction of new highways [1]. Forexample, the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) invested $91 billion in 2013for the purpose of pavement maintenance to restore the road network to a satisfactory,operational condition [2]. The main objective of any federal, state or municipal transportationagencies is to develop an efficient system of planning for the maintenance, rehabilitation, andconstruction of roadway networks; within the confines of allocated funding.

Since the interventionsthemselves are short (both the norms and mindset activities take less than an hour), the researchers weresurprised to see that so many students reflected positively on those activities. What the essay is not measuring,however, is the change in student sense of belonging over the course of the quarter.

In our course,we encountered gray areas where the enforcement of plagiarism rules and student learning maynot be in alignment. We also discovered that plagiarism cases were mostly among students withno prior experience, suggesting that plagiarizing could be as much a last-ditch attempt to salvagea lost situation, rather than a devious plan to break rules. This is not to suggest that we should scale back efforts to detect plagiarism or reportindividuals who commit it. However, we should also be understanding of what the underlyingissues might be.
