to personal opinions and biases. However, issues ofstructural racism and educational violence touch on all elements of higher education. In fact,many issues of discrimination and inequity are exacerbated in the science, technology,engineering, and math (STEM) fields. Engineering education in the United States has beenaccused of favoring white men at the exclusion of those traditionally underrepresented inengineering. However, contrary to the culturally responsive literature addressing approaches to“colorblindness,” engineering faculty believe they should treat all students equally [4].Engineering professors are experts in their technical fields, but these individuals have generallylacked both significant pedagogical training and a background

For example, BOK Outcome 1 (an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering) is nominally identical to ABET Criterion 3(a); however, the text associated with BOK Outcome 1 also calls for coverage of mathematics through differential equations, probability and statistics, calculus-based physics, biology, chemistry, ecology, geology/geomorphology, engineering economics, mechanics, material properties, systems, geo-spatial representation, and information technology.
