Theultimate goal is to graduate better engineers and better citizens. Four of the degree programshave achieved on average one course each semester, with an actual coverage of 103 out of 128semester courses, or 80% coverage over the four years. Of the 32 required courses in theacademic year that had an average of 753 students each semester doing S-L projects related tothe subject matter of the course, 19 of the courses (60%) were considered engineering science,that is, not

Studentsreceiving an “A” for exam scores in the 30’s were unlikely to feel proud of their accomplishment andwere highly unlikely to feel that they had learned what the instructor expected. These same students,however, did feel proud when an “A” was based upon an exam score in the 80’s.

How is marginalization legible (or not) to instructors at the classroom level? 3. What are the different ways that instructors respond to incidents of peer-to-peer marginalization? 4.

formulatedinterventions to aid these populations (e.g., [5]–[7]), few have adequately questioned the metric ofsuccess itself: retention. To be specific, “retention” tracks only the percentage of students whobegin their undergraduate career in a chosen major and successfully matriculate, which may be toocoarse of a measure for several reasons: 1. It counts students who switch out of a STEM major and flourish within a new major as failures (cell “L+” in Figure 1). 2. It counts students who remain within their originally declared STEM major but flounder academically, dislike the material, or do not envision themselves pursuing a career in the field after graduation as successes (cell “S-” in Figure 1). 3.
