“educate” these workers as to the proper ways to do their work.From the perspective of Taylor, the notion of engineering is one “benevolently” doing thethinking for the worker while the worker obediently does it. Armanios then shows how thesedeleterious assumptions persist today with a Job Interests Survey. He asks the students what theyprefer in a job, and then asks them what they think blue collar workers prefer in a job. Invirtually every instance he has run the survey, while engineering students say they preferinteresting work that uses their mind, they assume, just like Taylor, that blue collar workers justcare about job security and wages. He then analyzes data from the General Social Survey [40] onjob preferences between white and blue

At the Colorado School of Mines, educatorsinvestigated the success of immersing students in the user experience as a method for teachingempathy. The program has seen a change in the way students approach problems after receivingthe immersive course, and instructors have noted better quality of student work with the program[7].

The last ten years have produced significant progress in in what has beencalled ASCE’S “Raise the Bar” initiative.To maintain the initiative’s momentum, the successful processes of the past and the associated“lessons learned” must be clearly communicated to future leaders and proponents of the “Raisethe Bar” initiative. Much has been learned during the past 10 years of the “Raise the Bar”initiative. Many of these hard-learned lessons and experiences should guide the future directionof the initiative. In this regard, a quotation from Adlai E. Stevenson comes to mind: “We canchart our future clearly and wisely only when we know the path which has led to the present.”This is one of several papers presented in
